MULTIPLICATION 2 BY 1 DIGIT

Multiplication is a mathematical operation that represents the repeated addition of a number. For example, 4 multiplied by 3 (4 x 3) means adding 4 three times (4 + 4 + 4 = 12).

A factor is a number that is multiplied by another number to get a product. For example, in 6 x 7, both 6 and 7 are factors.

To multiply a two-digit number by a one-digit number, you can break the two-digit number into tens and ones, multiply each by the one-digit number, and then add the results.

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. This means you can distribute the multiplication over addition.

For example, to calculate 6 x (4 + 2), you can do 6 x 4 + 6 x 2, which equals 24 + 12 = 36.
