   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_sign

   The multiplication sign (×), also known as the times sign or the dimension sign, is a mathematical symbol used to denote the operation of multiplication, which results in a product. [ 1 ] The symbol is also used in botany , in botanical hybrid names and the heavy goods vehicle industry, to calculate the amount of powered wheels.

3. Multiplication table - Wikipedia

   Multiplication table. In mathematics, a multiplication table (sometimes, less formally, a times table) is a mathematical table used to define a multiplication operation for an algebraic system. The decimal multiplication table was traditionally taught as an essential part of elementary arithmetic around the world, as it lays the foundation for ...

   A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...

5. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   Order of operations. In mathematics and computer programming, the order of operations is a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which operations to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. These rules are formalized with a ranking of the operations. The rank of an operation is called its precedence, and ...

   Multiplication of two real numbers, two imaginary numbers or a real number by an imaginary number in the classical notation system was the same operation. Multiplication of a scalar and a vector was accomplished with the same single multiplication operator; multiplication of two vectors of quaternions used this same operation as did ...

7. History of quaternions - Wikipedia

   Here as he walked by on the 16th of October 1843 Sir William Rowan Hamilton in a flash of genius discovered the fundamental formula for quaternion multiplication. i2 = j2 = k2 = ijk = −1. & cut it on a stone of this bridge. In mathematics, quaternions are a non- commutative number system that extends the complex numbers.
