REVIEW OF MULTIPLICATION

1. Show that multiplication is a short method of addition. 2. Define multiplication, multiplier, multiplicand, product, factors, an abstract number, a concrete number.

3. What kind of a number must the multiplier always be?

4. What does the multiplication sign show? in multiplication is usually written before it?

Which term

5. At $2 a bushel, how much will 125 bushels of peaches cost? Which number is the multiplicand? Which one is the multiplier? 125 × $2 = ? How many times has the multiplicand $2 been taken? What is the product? Why is the product a concrete number?

6. Compare the product of 8 × 6 with the product of 6 × 8; the product of 2 x 14 with the product of 14 × 2. Either factor may be regarded as the multiplier.

The multiplicand may be either concrete or abstract. When it is concrete, the product will have the same name as the multiplicand. The multiplier is always abstract. Hence, when a concrete multiplicand is for convenience used as multiplier, it must be regarded as abstract.

Name two factors of:

7. 81; 125; 75; 64; 110; 108; 39; 72; 96; 80. 8. Multiply by 10, by 100, by 1000: (Do not use pencil.) 4; 8; 12; 15; 18; 25; 30; 35; 40; 50; 75.

1. Define division, dividend, divisor, quotient, remainder. 2. What is the sign of division? Division is indicated in three ways; thus, 15÷5, 15, and 5)15.

3. In problem 2, which number is the dividend? which is the divisor?

If the dividend and divisor are concrete, they must have the same The quotient is then abstract. Thus, $7 (divisor) is contained in $21 (dividend) 3 times (quotient).
