1, add up the same numbers and multiply them.
For example, five eights can be added continuously, and the multiplication 5×8=40 can be used.
2. Multiplication can be used to calculate multiples.
For example, how much is a square with an area of 4 square meters magnified by 8 times can be calculated by multiplying it by 4×8=32.
Second, division.
The product of two factors and one of them is known, and division is needed when the other factor is found.
For example: A×B=30, A=5, and what is B, then you can divide by 30÷5=6.
Extended data
The division formula dividend ÷ divisor = quotient, for example, 8÷2=4.
Dividend quotient = divisor, for example: 8÷4=2.
Quotient × Divider = Divider, for example: 2×4=8.
There is another situation:
Dividend splitter = quotient ... (six points) remainder (not greater than divisor).
Divider × quotient+remainder = dividend.
