>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 16 18:46:26 2010 No.1608564 For the multiply you have to have the first one be a number, so 6y would work, the first one is correct also. Do you need help on your 1st grade homework?

with the expression "xy"
the operator "x", representing the process of multiplication, is implied

it is the same as saying "x multiplied by y"

some assclown decided it was a useful thing to conceal the operation as a matter of convention

if no one told you this, then they suck ass
