...quantities in the following manner, (a -\-b-\-f) (c + d). Now, in multiplication, we propose to repeat the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier ; and hence, in this example, we are to repeat a -\-b-\-f as many times as there are units in c + rf.... | |

...numerator, or divide its denominator, by that number, for, as to multiply one number by another, it to take the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier, if the multiplicand be a fractional quantity, we must repeat that fractional quantity as many times... | |

...Product That Multiplication is a short way of performing several additions, may be shown by setting down the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier, and adding up the numbers. Thus, in the first example : 425 425 425 It will be seen that the sum of... | |

...are 144 OPERATION. 5 We see from the above examples, that any product may be found by setting down the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier, and adding all the numbers together. MULTIPLICATION is therefore a short method of addition, Q. How... | |

...b)—a-\-b. MULTIPLICATION. 40. Algebraic multiplication has the same object as arithmetical, viz., to repeat the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier. It is generally proved, in arithmetical treatises, that the product of two or more numbers is the same,... | |

...the right to the left. SUPPLEMENT TO MULTIPLICATION. Multiplying by a mixed number, as 6j, 5-J, &c. is taking the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier; and likewise taking a part of the multiplicand, as many times as there are lik« portions of a unit... | |

...multiplier, and the quotient will be the multiplicand. To prove multiplication by addition, set down the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier, and add their several numbers, and their amount will agree with the required product. If the multiplier... | |

...factors, in multiplication, is always to be considered as a number. The operation consists in repealing the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier. How then can a line, a surface, or a solid, become a multiplier 1 To explain this it will be necessary... | |
