About Multiplication
Multiplication is repeated addition with a shortcut attached. Arrange twelve objects in rows of three and you can see four groups without counting one by one: that rectangle is why area and multiplication use the same operation. The numbers you multiply are factors, the answer is a product, and a few rules hold no matter how large the numbers get. Anything times zero is zero, anything times one stays itself, and squaring simply means multiplying a number by itself.
Reach for this when a third or fourth grader is drilling times tables and needs the vocabulary that goes with them.
