I was actually wondering the same thing to . . . I did some research for my math quiz and I fould out the Mutiplicand comes before the Multiplier . . .
If you look at it logically . . . the Multiplier is suppose to be Multipling something . . . so if you put it first it couldn't multiply anything . . . that is why the Multiplicand comes before the Multiplier.
The order is . . .
Multiplicand . . . Multiplier . . . Sum

multiplicant is listed first, then multiplier is the number you are multiplying by.
the mutiplicand is the first number (s) and the multiplier is the second number
9 = multiplicand 4 = multiplier 36 = product
The quantity to be multiplied by the multiplier is called multiplicand. Say sin(x) is multiplied by 5. Then sin(x) is the multiplicand. 5 is the multiplier. If sin(x) is the multiplier, then 5 would become the multiplicand.
Multiplicand times multiplier equals product.
