Multiplier is a term that we don't use much any more, but it simply is
the second number in a two-part multiplication problem. Observe;
450 multiplicand
x 30 multiplier
-----
13500 product
We tend to use the basic word "factor" nowadays. "Multiplier" is part
of an older way of naming things. For subtraction, we have
592 minuend
- 148 subtrahend
-----
444 difference
For addition:
861 addend (or even augend)
+ 403 addend
-----
1264 sum (or total)
For division:
600 / 25 = 24 dividend / divisor = quotient
Does that help?
