Arithmetic operations are fundamental mathematical calculations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. These operations are essential for daily life and form the foundation of mathematics. Arithmetic comes from Greek "arithmos" meaning numbers
Multiplication means adding integers a specific number of times. Division means dividing integers into equal parts. There are four basic arithmetic operations for integers
Multiplication is one of four elementary mathematical operations. Result of multiplication is called product. Multiplication can be thought of as repeated addition of factors. Multiplication is commutative, meaning order of factors doesn't matter
Multiplication is finding the product of two or more numbers. Multiplication symbol is '×' or '.'. Represents repeated addition of one number with respect to another
