Overview

Multiplication is a way of adding the same number many times. It is faster than repeated addition. In this chapter, we learn how to multiply numbers using pictures, number lines, and multiplication tables. We use the symbol '×' for multiplication.

Key Concepts

When we add the same number

When we add the same number again and again, we can use multiplication. For example, 2 + 2 + 2 = 6 is the same as 3 × 2 = 6.

We can multiply by jumping equal

We can multiply by jumping equal steps on a number line. For example, to find 2 × 3, we jump 2 steps, 3 times, and reach 6.

Tables help us remember the answers

Tables help us remember the answers of multiplication facts. We learn tables of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 10 by heart.

The answer we get after multiplying

The answer we get after multiplying two numbers is called the product. For example, in 4 × 3 = 12, 12 is the product.
