In Microsoft Word you can go into the insert equation link, and click insert new equation.
While you are in the new equation box, at the top of the screen in the tool bar section you can insert all mathematical symbols.
If you have Microsoft 2007, it's a little different...
At the top there is an 'insert' link, click it and to the right side of the bar when it opens there is a pi sign and a ohm sign (π and Ω) click on the pi sign (π) and right at the bottom underneath the example equations are two options, click on insert new equation and once you insert it you can write the equation, to insert thing like multiplication signs and equal signs, in the design link at the top while you are writing your equation there are lots of different mathematical symbols to choose from.
:) Hope this helps!!
The sign of multiplication is x or *
Hold down the alt key while entering 0183 and then release the alt key
The multiplication sign on my keybord is * or ctrl 8
If you mean multiplication sign, then you hold down shift and press 8 (*).
Multiplication is an addition 'that' number of times. 3*3 = 9 3+3+3 = 9
The multiplication sign is located on the same button as the number eight. You can get to the multiplication sign by pressing Shift and the number eight key.
on the number keypad press * and on paper write "X"
Well, you can simply go: x or you can do shift+8 which is * which will also be acceptable.
x
÷division sign (a.k.a. obelus)1659Johann Rahn×multiplication sign1618William Oughtred
Why algebra has a different multiplication sign is because they don't want to mix up the American multiplication sign with the variable x. So they use a centered dot for algebra instead of this: x.
The × symbol for multiplication was introduced by William Oughtred in 1631.
