The result of a multiplication is called a product.
For example, when we multiply the numbers and , the result is We say that the number is the product of and The numbers and are called factors.
In general, a product is a result we get when we multiply two or more factors.
Identify the product and the factors of the equation
The result of a multiplication problem is called the product, while the numbers being multiplied are called the factors.
In this equation,
is the result (the product), and
and are the numbers being multiplied (the factors).
Therefore, "the product is while and are the factors."
