What is the sum of the first 4 multiples of 5?
5 + 10+15+20=50 ans
What is the sum of the first 25 multiples of 4?
Sum of first 25 multiples of 44+8+12....100taking 4 common4(1+2+3+4....+25) = 4*325 =1300
What is the sum of the first 15 multiples of 3?
3+6+9...+45taking 3 common3(1+2+...+15) = 360
What is the sum of all the multiples of 3 and 5 below 500?
The sum of all multiples of 3 below 500 is the sum of 3 + 6 + ... + 498 = 41583The sum of all multiples of 5 below 500 is the sum of 5 + 10 + ... + 495 = 24750Depending upon the interpretation of "of 3 and 5", the answer is one of:The sum of all multiples of both 3 and 5 below 500 is the sum of 15 + 30 + ... + 495 = 8415The sum of all multiples of 3 below 500 and all multiples of 5 below 500 is 41583 + 24750 = 66333Since the multiples of both 3 and 5 (that is 15, 30, ...) have been counted twice - once in the multiples of 3 and once in the multiples of 5 - the sum of all multiples of 3 or 5 or both below 500 is 41583 + 24750 - 8415 = 57918I have emphasised the word below with regard to 500 since 500 is a multiple of 5, but 500 is not below (less than) itself, that is the multiples are of the numbers 1, 2, 3, ..., 499. If the question was intended to mean less than or equal to 500, add an extra 500 to the multiples of 5 above, making the sum of the multiples of 5 be 25250 and the final sums (1) 8415, (2) 66833, (3) 58418.
What is the sum of the first 100 multiples of 3?
The solution to the given problem can be obtained by sum formula of arithmetic progression. In arithmetic progression difference of two consecutive terms is constant. The multiples of any whole number(in sequence) form an arithmetic progression. The first multiple of 3 is 3 and the 100th multiple is 300. 3, 6, 9, 12,... 300. There are 100 terms. The sum 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + ... + 300 can be obtained by applying by sum formula for arithmetic progression. Sum = (N/2)(First term + Last term) where N is number of terms which in this case is 100. First term = 3; Last term = 300. Sum = (100/2)(3 + 300) = 50 x 303 = 15150.
