  Google implied multiplication

  There’s no such thing. It’s a Term/Product.

  Do you write 2x or do you write 2 • x?

  2a=(2xa) by definition, and 5(8-5)=(5x8-5x5).

  That’s implied multiplication

  No, that’s a Term/Product.

  Implied multiplication

  Terms/Products

    In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication,

    I mean, I don’t like to argue about this, since I am not a native English speaker, but there is an implied multiplication there.

      In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication,

      or Factoristion, ab+ac=a(b+c) <== a Product of a and (b+c)

      I mean, I don’t like to argue about this

      And yet here you are arguing with someone who is and is a Maths teacher

      there is an implied multiplication there.

      Nope! It’s a Term/Product. There’s no such thing as “implied multiplication” - you won’t find it in any Maths textbook

        That time I didn’t use the term implied multiplication I merely said that the multiplication is implied
