You get another number whose magnitude will be greater than the original number. Whether it is bigger or smaller will depend on whether the whole number was positive or negative.
A positive number is a number greater than zero. Therefore: 5 x 2 = 10 is one example.
Bigger than it
When you multiply a positive number by a number greater than one, the result is a larger positive number. This is because the operation effectively increases the original number. For example, multiplying 3 by 2 results in 6, which is greater than 3. Thus, the product will always exceed the original positive number.
The product is a rational number.
Your number increases.
You get a positive number which is larger than the original.
It can increase, decrease or stay the same depending on what you multiply it by.
It increases.
It increases.
To make the product equal to 3.2, multiply by one. To make the product greater or lesser than 3.2 multiply by a number greater or lesser than one, respectively.
You get a number known as their "product".
If you multiply your number by any number greater than 1, the result will be greater than the starting number - assuming your number is positive. If your number is negative, you need to multiply it by any number less than 1, to get a result that is greater than the original number. To get a number that is slightly greater, multiply by a number that is slightly greater than 1 (ot slightly lee than= -1).
