It doesn't really relate to math so much, it is just from a famous book, called the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams. It was this supercomputer that finally calculated the answer to life as 42, after about 7 and a half million years.
Yup, that's why it so special, if you hear anyone say that.
But after all that they discovered that they'd asked the wrong question and then had to build another supercomputer to figure out what the right question should have been!

4 x something = 42. So 42 / 4 = something. 42 / 4 = 10.5 so 4 x 10.5 = 42 10.5
6 times 7 = 42 and so 7 is the larger number
The smallest whole number is ' 1 '. 42% is another way to write the number 0.42 and that's less than ' 1 ' . So 42 percent doesn't have what it takes to be a whole number, no matter what you do to it.
The multiples of 42 are: 42, 84, 126, 168, 210, 252, 294, 336, 378, 420, and so on. A number is a multiple of 42 if it is evenly divisible by 42.
The product of the two numbers is 42. The two other numbers, in order, are the multiplier and the multiplicand.
