multiplication

The (shitty) stuff you learn in third grade but in life it's only fractions.

The only fun of it is when you don't need it.

The hardest problem to ever exist is 12x12.

The one I liked most was 9s. Hate me...

In other words, it's occasionally used since most things are fractions and terrible division, for example, 1 divided by 2 is 0.5.

Multiplication is a way of doing repeated addition, for example, 5x3. You are putting 5 three times, therefore 5+5+5=15. It's a faster way of doing addition and is usually needed when making or designing a house. Here is an example of area:

10 ft x 9 ft = 90 sq ft.

The example given is area. There is array, a very similar way.

The example of array given is 6x3=?
