  2. Product (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_(mathematics)

    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.

  3. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    Numbers can count (3 apples), order (the 3rd apple), or measure (3.5 feet high); as the history of mathematics has progressed from counting on our fingers to modelling quantum mechanics, multiplication has been generalized to more complicated and abstract types of numbers, and to things that are not numbers (such as matrices) or do not look ...

    Figure 2 is used for the multiples of 2, 4, 6, and 8. These patterns can be used to memorize the multiples of any number from 0 to 10, except 5. As you would start on the number you are multiplying, when you multiply by 0, you stay on 0 (0 is external and so the arrows have no effect on 0, otherwise 0 is used as a link to create a perpetual cycle).

  5. Multiple (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    Each of the products listed below, and in particular, the products for 3 and −6, is the only way that the relevant number can be written as a product of 7 and another real number: 14 = 7 × 2 ; {\displaystyle 14=7\times 2;}

  6. Multiplication sign - Wikipedia

    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 .

  7. Rule of product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_product

    In this example, the rule says: multiply 3 by 2, getting 6. The sets {A, B, C} and {X, Y} in this example are disjoint sets, but that is not necessary.The number of ways to choose a member of {A, B, C}, and then to do so again, in effect choosing an ordered pair each of whose components are in {A, B, C}, is 3 × 3 = 9.

  8. Sum and Product Puzzle - Wikipedia

    The product of those two numbers would then be a semiprime. The following steps give the solution: S (Sue), P (Pete), and O (Otto) make tables of all products that can be formed from 2-splits of the sums in the range, i.e. from 5 to 100 (X > 1 and Y > X requires us to start at 5). For example, 11 can be 2-split into 2+9, 3+8, 4+7, and 5+6. The ...

  9. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculation

    For example, to say that 14 × 15 was 201 would be unreasonable. Since 15 is a multiple of 5, the product should be as well. Likewise, 14 is a multiple of 2, so the product should be even. Furthermore, any number which is a multiple of both 5 and 2 is necessarily a multiple of 10, and in the decimal system would end with a 0. The correct answer ...
