    For example, multiplication is granted a higher precedence than addition, and it has been this way since the introduction of modern algebraic notation. [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9.

  9. Multiplication sign - Wikipedia

    In algebra, it is a notation to resolve ambiguity (for instance, "b times 2" may be written as b⋅2, to avoid being confused with a value called b 2). This notation is used wherever multiplication should be written explicitly, such as in " ab = a ⋅2 for b = 2 "; this usage is also seen in English-language texts.
