Key concepts

3 concepts

  1. 1

    Multiplication is a process where you find the total by taking the number in each group and multiplying it by the number of groups.

  2. 2

    When multiplying any number by zero, the answer will always be zero, and when multiplying any number by one, the number stays the same.

  3. 3

    The 'x' symbol represents times in a multiplication problem, and the order of the numbers being multiplied does not change the final answer.
