This is a continuation of
the previous lesson. In our previous lesson, we looked at two (addition and subtraction) out
of the four basic operations in Mathematics; therefore, in this lesson, the
other two (multiplication and division) are discussed. If you missed the
previous lesson, you can get it HERE.
Before we start this
tutorial, I want you to go back to your multiplication table if you have
forgotten it. For now, you can recite from tables 1 to 10. One unique thing
about multiplication is that it makes calculation very much easy. Instead of
calculating ₦20 + ₦20 + ₦20 + ₦20 + ₦20 = ₦100 (like we illustrated in our
previous lesson under addition), you just count the number of ₦20 and multiply the number by the ₦20. Since the number of ₦20 is 5, we will have: ₦20 × 5 = ₦100. It’s simple, right? Well, you
will understand it better as we solve more examples.
