In the above example, number of books in each group is 2 and

total number of groups is 4. So instead of writing 2 + 2 + 2 +

2 the multiplication statement is 2×4=8.

 Ex:

5 + 5 + 5

Here in this example the number 5 is being added

repeatedly and it is added 3 times.

So the multiplication statement for this is

5 × 3 = 15 { the first number (5) is the number that

is being added repeatedly and the second number(3) is the
number of times 5 is being added}

Number that is being repeated × number of times the number is
repeated = product

 In 5 × 3 = 15

Learning Outcome- Students will be able to understand the concept of
