                    MulTiPliCATion AS rEPEATEd AddiTion

                              A rickshaw has 3 tyres.                              Here are 4 rickshaws.

                    How many tyres can you see in all?

                    Clearly, 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12 tyres

                    Repeated addition of the same number can be done by multiplication.

                    We say that, 3 added 4 times is equal to 12.

                    Or 4 times 3 is equal to 12.

                    We write:

                         4 × 3 = 12 read as 4 into 3 is equal to 12.

                    Or  4 multiplied by 3 is equal to 12.

                    ‘×’ stands for multiplication.

                    4 × 3 = 12 is a multiplication fact.

                                Exercise 9C

                      1.  Complete the following. one has been done for you.

                           a.

                                                  +                    +                 =

                                       3          +         3          +          3       =    9          3 times 3 = 9

                                                                                                                 143
