Why do you always get a multiple of 9 when you take a smaller 4 digit number from a larger 4 digit number?

The question asserts something that is not true.
For example, 2000 - 1000 = 1000. 1000 is not a multiple of 9.

How do you know the multiples correct?
Divide the larger number by the smaller one. If the answer is an integer, the larger number is a multiple of the smaller.
How do you know whenether a number is a multiple of another number?
Divide the smaller number into the larger number. If it comes out evenly with no remainder, the larger number is a multiple of the smaller number. All even numbers are multiples of two.
What is it called when one number can be divided by another and the result is an exact whole number?
The smaller number is a factor of the larger number, and the larger number is a multiple of the smaller.
How do you know whether a number is a multiple of another number?
Divide the smaller number into the larger one. If the answer is an integer, it's a multiple.
What is the LCM of 7 and 35?
The Least Common Multiple is 35(this occurs when the larger number is already a multiple of the smaller one)(*The Greatest Common Factor is 7. This likewise occurs when the smaller number is a factor of the larger number.)Since 35 is a multiple of 7, it is automatically the LCM.
When is the GCF of two numbers one of the two numbers?
When the smaller one is a factor of the larger one. (That also means the larger one is a multiple of the smaller one.) The smaller number is the GCF of both.
If I divide a smaller number by a larger number will this indicate the percentage that the larger number is over the smaller number?
No, that will indicate the percentage the smaller number is of the larger number.
What is the number that has a factor of 4x4 is smaller than 40x40 larger than 35x35 and is a multiple of 17?
1360
Explain Why the LCM is at least as large as the GCF.?
No number can have a multiple smaller than itself. No number can have a factor larger than itself. In a set of two numbers, the LCM can't be smaller than the larger number and the GCF can't be larger than the smaller number. In rare cases, the LCM can equal the GCF, but it can never be smaller.
Can a multiple of a number be smaller than the number?
It depends on what they are compared to. In general, factors will be smaller than the number they are compared to, and multiples will be larger. Overall, factors tend to be smaller than multiples, but 20 is a factor of 40 and 10 is a multiple of 5, so there are exceptions.
What is another name for a pair of numbers whose greatest common factor is the same as one of the numbers?
In that case, the smaller number is a factor of the larger one. The larger one is a multiple of the smaller one.
What is the greatest common multiple of 88 and 112?
Short answer: There is not one. You could say that the greatest common multiple is infinity since there are an infinite number of common multiples. If you give a specific number as the greatest common multiple, you can always find a larger one by doubling it. For example, 9856 is a common multiple of 88 and 112. But, it is not the greatest common multiple. I can double it to make a larger common multiple: 19,712. I could multiply this one by 100 to make an even larger common multiple: 1,971,200. I can always make a larger common multiple.
