i call it multiplication
The two (or more) numbers that you multiply are called factors. (The result of the multiplication is called the product.)
The Abelian or commutative property of the multiplication of numbers. It is important that both "multiplication" and "numbers" feature in the answer. Because, it is applicable to multiplication but not, for example, for division. It is applicable for the multiplication on numbers but not matrices.
factors * * * * * No, they are called multiplicands.
a multiplication grid looks like a box set of numbers where you multiply two numbers making each two numbers multiplied by making multiplication boxes

The answer in multiplication is the product.

A product is an answer to a multiplication problem.

I'm not aware of a way to compare two numbers by multiplication.

The multiplication most people are familiar with which you probably learned in school, IS commutative - that's the multiplication of integers, as well as real numbers in general.There are some other operations which mathematicians call "multiplication" which are NOT communitative; for example, the multiplication of matrices, or the cross-product of vectors.
the multiplication of two numbers is called a factor the answer to a multiplication problem is called a product
