Multiplication

In math, multiplication is the method of finding the product of two or more numbers. It is a primary arithmetic operation that is used quite often in real life. Multiplication is used when we need to combine groups of equal sizes. Let us learn more about multiplication in this page. The numbers that are multiplied are called the factors and the result that is obtained after the multiplication of two or more numbers is known as the product of those numbers. Multiplication is used to simplify the task of repeated addition of the same number.Example: If there are 6 boxes of cupcakes and each box has 9 cupcakes, find the total number of cupcakes.
