So 12 is the product of 3 and 4, 20 is the product of 4 and 5 and so on. Children need to become familiar with this concept in Key Stage 2 as questions such as the following often come up in mental maths test and written tests: What is the product of 10 and 3?
If children are not aware of the definition of this word, it is very easy for them to think the above question requires addition of 10 and 3 13 instead of multiplication of 10 and 3 Multiplication vocabulary in KS2 In Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 children are expected to be familiar with a range of mathematical vocabulary. Vocabulary related to multiplication includes: product times multiplied 'lots' of often represented visually as arrays.
Children may be given puzzles or investigations which include vocabulary that they need to be confident with, for example: Which two even numbers below twenty give a product of ? For this, children need to be aware of the meaning of the words 'even' and 'product'. Their next task is to think about how to work out the answer. A good way to do this would be to list all the even numbers below twenty and then practise multiplying different pairs together.
For example, the product of two sets is given by the Cartesian product. In topology , the product of spaces can be defined by using the product topology. The product of two groups , vector spaces , or modules is given by the direct product. In category theory , the product of objects is given using the category product.

Walk through homework problems step-by-step from beginning to end. Hints help you try the next step on your own. One has been identified for you already, the identity property of multiplication — any number times 1 gives back the original number.
The other special case is the multiplication property of 0. Any number times 0 gives a product in math of 0. Get better grades with tutoring from top-rated professional tutors.
