...factors, in multiplication, is always to be considered as a number. (Art. 91.) The operation consists in repeating the multiplicand, as many times as there are units in the multiplier. How then can a line, a surface, or a!' solid, become a multiplier? To explain this, it will be necessary... | |

...idea which we have given of multiplication, we see that we could perform this operation by writing the multiplicand as many times as there are units in the multiplier, and afterward performing the addition. For instance, to multiply 7 by 3, we could write 7 + 7 + 7,... | |
