What is the purpose of multiplication?
The purpose of multiplication is to determine the result of repeated addition. It allows us to find the total amount or quantity when we have a group of equal parts or quantities that need to be added together. For example, if we want to know how many apples we have in 6 baskets, each containing 8 apples, we can multiply 6 by 8 using multiplication to get the answer of 48 apples.
