6×4

6×4 denotes the product of the integers 6 and 4. In mathematics, the symbol × is the multiplication operator, and 6×4 equals 24. The operation is commutative, so 6×4 = 4×6. The prime factorization of the product is 2^3 × 3, since 6 = 2×3 and 4 = 2^2.

Geometrically, 6×4 can describe a rectangle with side lengths of 6 and 4 units. Its area is 6×4 = 24 square units. The length of the rectangle’s diagonal is √(6^2 + 4^2) = √52 = 2√13 ≈ 7.211 units.

Common meanings and contexts for 6×4 include photography and printing, where 6×4 (often written 6 by 4) refers to a print size of 6 inches by 4 inches. This is a standard format for physical photographs in some markets, with the 4×6 size also widely used and simply rotated in orientation. In digital contexts, 6×4 can describe a grid or matrix of 24 cells (for example, a 6 by 4 pixel or tile layout), though numeric values and dimensions are often expressed in other units.

In summary, 6×4 primarily represents a simple multiplication yielding 24, but it also appears in geometric, photographic, and digital contexts where it denotes dimensions or layout formats. The exact interpretation depends on the surrounding units and application.
