Not necessarily. Both methods involve work, so neither really is a shortcut for each other.

multiplication is repeated addition

A product is multiplication.
the inverse of addition is subtraction and the inverse of multiplication is division. Of course, multiplication is just repeated addition so division is just repeated subtraction!
Originally they were probably invented as a shortcut for repeated multiplication, just as multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition. However, it was eventually found that, just as fractional factors, fractional exponents can also be given a reasonable - and very useful - definition.Originally they were probably invented as a shortcut for repeated multiplication, just as multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition.

Multiplication is simply a shortcut for repeated addition of the same number.For example, 4 x 2 is the same as 2 + 2 + 2 + 2(two added to itself, four times).
Multiplication by an integer is the same as repeated addition.
Addition, sum would be multiplication.
+ addition - subtraction* multiplication
well, multiplication is related to additon because addition comes from multiplication because in bidmas multiplication comes first then addition that is the main term cause.

Multiplication is repeated addition.
A power is a shortcut for repeated multiplication. The exponent tells you how often the factor must appear. For example, 84 = 8 x 8 x 8 x 8. Similarly, a multiplication is a repeated addition.
For addition, 0 and for multiplication, 1.
