2. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   Sometimes multiplication and division are given equal precedence, or sometimes multiplication is given higher precedence than division; see § Mixed division and multiplication below. If each subtraction is replaced with addition of the opposite (additive inverse), then the associative and commutative laws of addition allow terms to be added in ...

3. Multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

   e. Multiplication (often denoted by the cross symbol ×, by the mid-line dot operator ⋅, by juxtaposition, or, on computers, by an asterisk *) is one of the four elementary mathematical operations of arithmetic, with the other ones being addition, subtraction, and division. The result of a multiplication operation is called a product.

4. Elementary arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_arithmetic

   Elementary arithmetic is a branch of mathematics involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Due to its low level of abstraction, broad range of application, and position as the foundation of all mathematics, elementary arithmetic is generally the first branch of mathematics taught in schools. [1][2]

5. Subtraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtraction

   Subtraction follows several important patterns. It is anticommutative, meaning that changing the order changes the sign of the answer. It is also not associative, meaning that when one subtracts more than two numbers, the order in which subtraction is performed matters. Because 0 is the additive identity, subtraction of it does not change a number.

6. Ordinal arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_arithmetic

   The order-type of the Cartesian product is the ordinal that results from multiplying the order-types of S and T. The definition of multiplication can also be given by transfinite recursion on β. When the right factor β = 0, ordinary multiplication gives α · 0 = 0 for any α.

7. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic

   Arithmetic is the fundamental branch of mathematics that studies numbers and their operations. In particular, it deals with numerical calculations using the arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. [1] In a wider sense, it also includes exponentiation, extraction of roots, and logarithm. [2]
