About Multiplication

A Multiplication Calculator helps you quickly find the product of two or more numbers. Multiplication is one of the four basic arithmetic operations, and it is essentially repeated addition. This calculator simplifies the process of multiplying numbers, providing fast and accurate results for any calculation needs.

What is Multiplication?

Multiplication is the mathematical operation of scaling one number by another. It is represented by the "×" symbol (or sometimes by "*" in computing). The result of a multiplication operation is called the product. Multiplication can be viewed as repeated addition: for example, 5 × 3 means adding 5 three times: 5 + 5 + 5 = 15.

Multiplication is commonly used in:

Commerce – Calculating costs for multiple items.
Finance – Computing compound interest or returns.
Engineering – Scaling dimensions and measurements.
Science – Calculating areas, volumes, and rates.

Formula for Multiplication:

Product = Multiplicand × Multiplier

Where:

  • Multiplicand = The number being multiplied
  • Multiplier = The number of times the multiplicand is multiplied
  • Product = The result of the multiplication

Example:

If you multiply 12 by 8, the calculation will be:

Product = 12 × 8 = 96
