Calculation with Multiplication






Answers to Questions (FAQ)

What is multiplication? (Definition)

Multiplication is a fundamental mathematical operation defined as the repetition of addition.

Example: Multiplying 3 by 4, which reads 3 times 4, equals 3 + 3 + 3 + 3, which gives 12.

What is the problem with multiplying very large numbers?

Calculation tools such as calculators or computers are limited by their ability to display or manage a large number of numbers in the result.

Standard calculators generally have a limited capacity in terms of displayed digits, which can make it difficult to manipulate multiplication results with many digits.

Processors and computers are generally limited in handling overflows, as integers cannot exceed a certain allocated memory size, which can lead to errors or the loss of significant information.

Example: On a 32-bit architecture, integers cannot exceed 4294967295.

How to calculate a multiplication with big numbers?

Enter numbers (up to several thousand digits) and click the button to calculate.

The dCode multiplication tool with big integers uses arbitrary precision calculation algorithms. That is to say that it is not limited to a few billion (like most other software) and it can multiply exact values without rounding nor need of a scientific notation. It is called large/huge number multiplication.

What are multiplication tables?

Traditionally multiplication tables refers to this table:

\12345678910
112345678910
22468101214161820
336912151821242730
4481216202428323640
55101520253035404550
66121824303642485460
77142128354249566370
88162432404856647280
99182736455463728190
10102030405060708090100

What is the Karatsuba algorithm?

The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication technique for large numbers. In order to improve calculation time the multiplication is accelerated by decomposing it:

ab * cd = (a * 10^k + b) * (c * 10^k + d) = ac * 10^2k + (ad + bc) * 10^k + bd

This multiplication needs 4 values ac, ad, bc and bd. More:

(a * 10^k + b) * (c * 10^k + d) = ac * 10^2k + (ac + bd - (a - b)(c - d)) * 10^k + bd

The same multiplication needs 3 values: ac, bd and (a - b)(c - d).
