7x2

7×2, read as seven times two, is a basic arithmetic expression that represents the product of the numbers 7 and 2. The result is 14. The operation is commutative, so 2×7 also equals 14. In elementary arithmetic, multiplication is often described as repeated addition: 7 added to itself two times yields 14, or equivalently, 2 added to itself seven times yields 14.

Numerical properties: 14 is an even, composite number with prime factorization 2×7. Its divisors are 1, 2, 7, and 14. In base-10 notation, 14 is a two-digit number.

Geometric interpretation: a rectangle measuring 7 by 2 units has an area of 14 square units.

Applications: 7×2 appears in multiplication tables, early math learning, and in broader contexts such as computing areas, scaling, and unit conversions. In some contexts, "7x2" may denote dimensions, such as a sheet that is 7 units long and 2 units wide. The expression also serves as a simple example for illustrating arithmetic properties when extending to larger problems.
