So Noah knew the [[ark]] had to be a volume of 300 times 50 times 30 is 450000 cubics<sup>3</sup>, to fit two of all the animals in the world in it.

Multiplication is sometimes confusing because the symbol for multiplication is very similar to the letter x; but the letter x can also stand for a variable in algebra, as in "solve for x." In printed material, slightly different symbols are used for the letter x and the multiplication symbol ×.

In printed material, slightly different symbols are used for the letter x and the multiplication symbol ×. Sometimes, in mathematics, a centered dot is used to stand for multiplication:
:3 · 2
:a · b
:6.022 ·10<sup>23</sup>
In algebra, quantities may simply be juxtaposed (written next to each other) without any symbols, to indicate multiplication. In this expression, 2ab means 2 times ''a'' times ''b''.
:a<sup>2</sup> + 2ab + b<sup>2</sup>
