Originally, a product was and is still the result of the multiplication of two or more numbers.For example, 15 is the product of 3 and 5.The fundamental theorem of arithmetic states that every composite number is a product of prime numbers, that is unique up to the order of the factors.
Such a product is the subject of dimensional analysis. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. For example, since 4 multiplied by 3 equals 12, 12 divided by 3 equals 4. Indeed, multiplication by 3, followed by division by 3, yields the original number. The division of a number other than 0 by itself equals 1.
In arithmetic and algebra, the fourth power of a number n is the result of multiplying four instances of n together. So: ... 8707481 4 = 8332208 4 + 5507880 4 ...
The fundamental theorem can be derived from Book VII, propositions 30, 31 and 32, and Book IX, proposition 14 of Euclid's Elements.. If two numbers by multiplying one another make some number, and any prime number measure the product, it will also measure one of the original numbers.
4 (four) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 3 and preceding 5 . It is a square number , the smallest semiprime and composite number , and is considered unlucky in many East Asian cultures.
An economical number has been defined as a frugal number, but also as a number that is either frugal or equidigital. gcd(m, n) (greatest common divisor of m and n) is the product of all prime factors which are both in m and n (with the smallest multiplicity for m and n).

[3] [4] E.g., the integer 14 is a composite number because it is the product of the two smaller integers 2 × 7 but the integers 2 and 3 are not because each can only be divided by one and itself. The composite numbers up to 150 are:
