-
The ways to represent a multiplication are several
-
Starting with the basiscs, let's say that 5x2 in this case 10 with a cross
-
another one is with a parenthesis, in other words, both can have parenthesis
-
if there's no sign that separates, it means that they're multiplying
-
or one of them can have a parenthesis and it also means multiplication if there's no sign
-
that separates this number and the other one that's inside the parenthesis, it also means multiplication
-
the other one can have a parenthesis and the integer to the right don't, it also means multiplication
-
or when they're separated by a point in the middle
-
not with a point that is below for it means a decimal, if there's a point in the middle it also means multiplication
-
When Algebra variables are used
-
let's say 5 times M it means that's adding 5 times the "M"
-
in this case, it'd be add 5 times the 2 or add 5 twice
-
a number and a letter together, when there's no plus or less sign, means that they're multiplying
-
it can also be applied to the same nomenclature here
-
that would be the 2 with parenthesis, or only one of them that can be either the variable or the number
-
also, a point in the middle can be placed and this means multiplication
-
and to finish, when we only have multiplying variables, the same applies
-
if there are 2 letters together without a sign separating them, it means that they're multiplying
-
they can also be separated by a point or a parenthesis
-
it can be applied to both or to one of them, the order isn't important
-
Also, other association symbols can be used such as square brackets or keys.
