What do you mean by four operations?
Four operations refer to four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Four operations are the important content of primary school mathematics and the basis of learning other related knowledge.

I. Definition

Addition: the operation of combining two numbers into one number.

Subtraction: when two addends and one of them are known, the operation of finding the other addend.

Multiplication: the operation of finding the product of two numbers.

(1) Multiplying a number with an integer is a simple operation, and you can find the sum of several identical addends.

(2) Multiply a number by a decimal to find a few tenths, a few percent and a few thousandths of this number.

(3) A number multiplied by a fraction is a fraction of this number.

Division: the operation of finding another factor by knowing the product of two factors and one of them.

Second, the relationship

Multiplication is a simple operation of addition and division is a simple operation of subtraction.

Subtraction is the inverse of addition and division is the inverse of multiplication.

Appendix+Appendix = Sum

Negative-negative = difference

One addend = and-the other addend.

Subtraction = minuend-difference

Subtraction = difference+subtraction

Factor × factor = product

One factor = product ÷ another factor

Dividend = quotient

Divider = Divider

Dividend = quotient × divisor
