To find multiples of a number we multiply that number with natural numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... .
Since those natural numbers are also called the consecutive positive integers, let's denote with x the first of the four consecutive positive integers whose product with 5 add up to 4,130. So we are adding these multiples of 5:
5x + 5(x + 1) + 5(x + 2) + 5 (x + 3) = 4,130
5x + 5x + 5 + 5x + 10 + 5x + 15 = 4,130
20x + 30 = 4,130
20x = 4,100
x = 205
Since we are interested for the largest multiple, then we have:
x + 3 = 205 + 3 = 208
5 x 208 = 1,040.
Thus, the largest number is 1,040.
