As an exponent.
For example, 2.3*2.3*2.3*2.3 = (2.3)4

Somehow, division can be considered a process of repeated subtraction, in a way. Although usually it is better to consider division as the inverse to multiplication.Somehow, division can be considered a process of repeated subtraction, in a way.

When you hear a multiplication problem spoken out loud, it's read as "# times #" the first number is the number of which you will be multiplying, and the second number is the amount of times you will be adding that number. So if it were 4 times 2, it would be the starting number four, and then add 4 to 4. Which is 8 4*2= 4+4 and.. 4*3= 4+4+4 and so on. So yeah, multiplication is a shortcut of addition in a way...
A short way to represent the repeated multiplication of a quantity. The quantity itself is called the base, and the number of times the multiplication occurs is called the exponent. For example: 3*3*3*3 = 34 (x - 2)(x - 2)(x - 2) = (x - 2)3
If the "x" is a multiplication sign, you can simply write the numbers first, and omit the multiplication sign: 21ac.
