To multiply one number ( a multiplicand ) by another ( a multiplier ) means to repeat a multiplicand as an addend times. The result of multiplying is called a product. The operation of multiplication is written as: 12 x 6, or 12 * 6
Multiply 12 by 6
6 is called the Multiplier
12 is called the Multiplicand
72 is called the Product
Therefore, a multiplicand and a multiplier are called factors or multipliers.
