Multiple (mathematics)In mathematics, a multiple is the product of any quantity and an integer. In other words, for the quantities a{\displaystyle a} and b{\displaystyle b}, it can be said that b{\displaystyle b} is a multiple of a{\displaystyle a} if b=n⋅a{\displaystyle b=n\cdot a} for some integer n, which is called the multiplier. If a{\displaystyle a} is not zero, this is equivalent to saying that b/a{\displaystyle b/a} is an integer.
DivisorIn mathematics, a divisor of an integern,{\displaystyle n,} also called a factor of n,{\displaystyle n,} is an integer m{\displaystyle m} that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n.{\displaystyle n.} In this case, one also says that n{\displaystyle n} is a multiple of m.{\displaystyle m.} An integer n{\displaystyle n} is divisible or evenly divisible by another integer m{\displaystyle m} if m{\displaystyle m} is a divisor of n{\displaystyle n}; this implies dividing n{\displaystyle n} by m{\displaystyle m} leaves no remainder.Product (mathematics)In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication, or an expression that identifies objects (numbers or variables) to be multiplied, called factors. For example, 21 is the product of 3 and 7 (the result of multiplication), and x ⋅ ( 2 + x ) {\displaystyle x\cdot (2+x)} is the product of x {\displaystyle x} and ( 2 + x ) {\displaystyle (2+x)} (indicating that the two factors should be multiplied together).
Unit fractionA unit fraction is a positive fraction with one as its numerator, 1/n. It is the multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) of the denominator of the fraction, which must be a positive natural number. Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, etc. When an object is divided into equal parts, each part is a unit fraction of the whole. Multiplying two unit fractions produces another unit fraction, but other arithmetic operations do not preserve unit fractions.
MultiplicationArithmetical operationFour bags with three marbles per bag gives twelve marbles (4 × 3 = 12).Multiplication can also be thought of as scaling. Here, 2 is being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result.Multiplication is one of the four elementary mathematical operations of arithmetic, with the other ones being addition, subtraction, and division. The result of a multiplication operation is called a product.
IntegerAn integer is the number zero (0), a positive natural number (1, 2, 3, ...), or the negation of a positive natural number (−1, −2, −3, ...). The negations or additive inverses of the positive natural numbers are referred to as negative integers.PolynomialIn mathematics, a polynomial is a mathematical expression consisting of indeterminates (also called variables) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and exponentiation to nonnegative integer powers, and has a finite number of terms. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate x {\displaystyle x} is x 2 − 4 x + 7 {\displaystyle x^{2}-4x+7} .
MathematicsMathematics is a field of knowledge concerned with abstract concepts such as numbers, geometric shapes, sets, functions, and probabilities. It uses logical reasoning and proof to study and establish their properties, often expressed as theorems, formulas, and equations. Mathematics is used to model and solve problems in science, engineering, technology, economics, and everyday life.
PrefixA prefix is an affix which is placed before the stem and before the suffix of a word. Particularly in the study of languages, a prefix is also called a preformative, because it alters the form of the word to which it is affixed.Base unit of measurementA base unit of measurement (also referred to as a base unit or fundamental unit) is a unit of measurement adopted for a base quantity. A base quantity is one of a conventionally chosen subset of physical quantities, where no quantity in the subset can be expressed in terms of the others. The SI base units, or Systéme International d'unités, consists of the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole and candela.

Unit of measurementA unit of measurement, or unit of measure, is a definite magnitude of a quantity, defined and adopted by convention or by law, that is used as a standard for measurement of the same kind of quantity. Any other quantity of that kind can be expressed as a multiple of the unit of measurement, For example, a length is a physical quantity. The metre (symbol: m) is a unit of length that represents a definite predetermined length.multipleRelated word or term.submultipleRelated word or term.*As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
