A certain bookstore chain has two stores, one in San Francisco and one in Los Angeles. It stocks three kinds of books: hardcover

, softcover, and plastic (for infants). At the beginning of January, the central computer showed the following books in stock.
Hard Soft Plastic
San Francisco 1,000 2,000 6,000
Los Angeles 1,000 6,000 2,000
Its sales in January were as follows: 600 hardcover books, 1,200 softcover books, and 1,900 plastic books sold in San Francisco, and 300 hardcover, 200 softcover, and 400 plastic books sold in Los Angeles. The bookstore chain actually maintained the same sales figures for the first 6 months of the year. Each month, the chain restocked the stores from its warehouse by shipping 500 hardcover, 1,400 softcover, and 1,400 plastic books to San Francisco and 600 hardcover, 600 softcover, and 600 plastic books to Los Angeles.
(a) Use matrix operations to determine the total sales over the 6 months, broken down by store and type of book.

Los Angeles
(b) Use matrix operations to determine the inventory in each store at the end of June.

Answer:

a. Sales from January to June: Matrix B6

                             Hard    Soft       Plastic

San Francisco     3,600   7,200     11,400

Los Angeles        1,800    1,200      2,400

b) Ending Inventory: Matrix D:

                            Hard      Soft      Plastic

San Francisco      400     3,200     3,000

Los Angeles     2,800     8,400     3,200

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                             Hard    Soft       Plastic

San Francisco       600     1,200     1,900

Los Angeles         300       200        400

Restocking: Matrix C

San Francisco     500   1,400      1,400

Los Angeles       600      600       600

Total Sales over the first 6 months =

Matrix B * 6 = Matrix B6

Sales in January: Matrix B

San Francisco    3,000   8,400      8,400

Los Angeles      3,600   3,600      3,600

Inventory at the end of June =

Matrix A + Matrix C6 - Matrix B6

= Matrix D

What is multiplication in 2 paragraphs
Ivanshal [37]

Four bags with three marbles per bag gives twelve marbles (4 × 3 = 12).

Multiplication can also be thought of as scaling. Here we see 2 being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result.

Animation for the multiplication 2 × 3 = 6.

4 × 5 = 20. The large rectangle is composed of 20 squares, each having dimensions of 1 by 1.

Area of a cloth 4.5m × 2.5m = 11.25m2; 4½ × 2½ = 11¼

Multiplication (often denoted by the cross symbol "×", by a point "⋅", by juxtaposition, or, on computers, by an asterisk "∗") is one of the four elementary mathematical operations of arithmetic; with the others being addition, subtraction and division.

The multiplication of whole numbers may be thought as a repeated addition; that is, the multiplication of two numbers is equivalent to adding as many copies of one of them, the multiplicand, as the value of the other one, the multiplier. The multiplier can be written first and multiplicand second (though the custom can vary by culture[1]).

{\displaystyle a\times b=\underbrace {b+\cdots +b} _{a}} a\times b=\underbrace {b+\cdots +b} _{a}

For example, 4 multiplied by 3 (often written as {\displaystyle 3\times 4} 3\times 4 and spoken as "3 times 4") can be calculated by adding 3 copies of 4 together:

{\displaystyle 3\times 4=4+4+4=12} 3\times 4=4+4+4=12

Here 3 and 4 are the factors and 12 is the product.

One of the main properties of multiplication is the commutative property: adding 3 copies of 4 gives the same result as adding 4 copies of 3:

{\displaystyle 4\times 3=3+3+3+3=12} 4\times 3=3+3+3+3=12

Thus the designation of multiplier and multiplicand does not affect the result of the multiplication[2].

The multiplication of integers (including negative numbers), rational numbers (fractions) and real numbers is defined by a systematic generalization of this basic definition.

Multiplication can also be visualized as counting objects arranged in a rectangle (for whole numbers) or as finding the area of a rectangle whose sides have given lengths. The area of a rectangle does not depend on which side is measured first, which illustrates the commutative property. The product of two measurements is a new type of measurement, for instance multiplying the lengths of the two sides of a rectangle gives its area, this is the subject of dimensional analysis.

The inverse operation of multiplication is division. For example, since 4 multiplied by 3 equals 12, then 12 divided by 3 equals 4. Multiplication by 3, followed by division by 3, yields the original number (since the division of a number other than 0 by itself equals 1).

Multiplication is also defined for other types of numbers, such as complex numbers, and more abstract constructs, like matrices. For some of these more abstract constructs, the order in which the operands are multiplied together matters. A listing of the many different kinds of products that are used in mathematics is given in the product (mathematics) page.
