Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question asks to identify which of the following integers are multiples of 36 from the given list: 72, 18, 9, 144, 324, and 12.
To check which are multiples of 36:
A number is a multiple of 36 if it is divisible by 36 (i.e., the remainder when divided by 36 is zero).
Let’s check each number:
- 72 ÷ 36 = 2 → 72 is a multiple of 36.
- 18 ÷ 36 = 0.5 → 18 is not a multiple of 36.
- 9 ÷ 36 = 0.25 → 9 is not a multiple of 36.
- 144 ÷ 36 = 4 → 144 is a multiple of 36.
- 324 ÷ 36 = 9 → 324 is a multiple of 36.
- 12 ÷ 36 = 0.333... → 12 is not a multiple of 36.
Conclusion:
The integers that are multiples of 36 are 72, 144, and 324.
