Introduction
8 times 6: In this blog, we are going to learn about the multiplication. Also, basic arithmetic was used in the multiplication. In short if when we have to add the same number multiple times. Then we are writing that number 8 times 6 (n also it can be written as (8×6). And this is the same thing that we are adding 8 for the 6 time. Hence in the same way we are taking the number 6 for the 8 times. And also what if you have more than the two numbers to multiply? In this blog, we going to see in detail the multiplication of any number.
How do I multiply numbers?(8 times 6)
Multiplication and the product are the same thing. The result we are getting from multiplying the number. It is a very simple process. It is basically that we are getting the value from adding that number multiple times For example 8 times 6. It means that we are adding the number 8 for the 6 times. For example
8×6
=8+8+8+8+8+8
=48
Similarly, 1212 times 2020 translates to adding 12
12 twenty times:
12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+
12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12
+12+12+12+12=240
However, note that we can always invert the process of finding the product with multiplication. In other words, the 2424 times 55 can also mean adding 55 twenty-four times:
5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=1205+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=120
and we can get 1212 times 2020 by adding 2020 twelve times:
20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20=24020+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20=20
However, This time we learned how to multiply integers, such as 2,8, 6, and so on. What if I say to multiply the product of the decimal? Such as 0.2 times of 3.75. Let us look at the method of the multiplication of the decimal number.
Multiplication of the decimal(8 times 6)
Decimals are generally the fraction. Hence the one way to multiply the decimals is first you have to convert them into fractions. Thereafter you can multiply them by following the basic rule of numerator times of the numerator. And denominator times of the denominator. Hence look at the example.
For the multiplication of the fraction, you have to follow the following steps.
Step 1. Multiply the top numbers:
1/2 × 2/5 = 1 × 2 = 2
Step 2. Multiply the bottom numbers:
1/2 × 2/5 = 1 × 2/2 × 5 = 2/10
Step 3. Simplify the fraction:
2/10 = 1/5
Hence there is one more way from which you can multiply the decimal numbers. In this method, we have to find the equivalent fraction that is equal to that decimal number. Such as 0.2 =1/5 and 1.125 = 5/4
So, 0.2 × 1.125= 1/5×5/4
= 1/5×5/4
Then you will get the number
5/20=1/4
However, if you are getting an answer from either of the methods then both methods are the correct method. Hence the answer obtained from each method is also correct.
The process used by the multiplication calculator to find the value of the multiplication
For example, we have to find the product of 2020 and the 12
Then we input the first number 2020
And then the second number 12
Then you will get the answer of 2020×12 = 24240
Also while you are multiplying any number by a decimal number then
Then after also have to put the value of the 1st number such as 2020
And after that, we have to put the value of the second decimal number. Let us take that number is equal to 1.3
Then we will get the final value = 2020 × 1.3=2626
However, if you are using the calculator while multiplying the given number. It will save you lots of time and energy. You are putting in the multiplication of numbers by doing it manually. For example, take a look at the above calculation. When you are performing that calculation it will take time. But with the help of the calculator you can get the answer to that calculation within a second.
Conclusion
In conclusion, multiplication is a very straightforward process. Where we can find the product of numbers. Hence it involves adding a particular number multiple times. For instance, 8 times 6 is the same as adding 8 six times, resulting in 48. Similarly, 12 times 20 means adding 12 twenty times, giving us 240. Hence we can say that multiplication is the inverse process of addition. However, this multiplication can also be further simplified with the help of the calculator. While you are doing the multiplication of more than the two numbers. Hence the use of the calculator will save you lots of time and energy compared to manual calculation. However, it will provide you the quick and accurate results. And also makes the mathematical operation more efficient.
