Multiply 2 numbers

Function: Multiply 2 numbers

This action allows you to easily calculate the product of two numerical values. It's perfect for scenarios where you need to find out what you get when one number is multiplied by another, such as calculating total costs, areas, or projecting growth.

Input

• Left argument: The first number you want to multiply. This must be a numerical value.
• Right argument: The second number you want to multiply. This must also be a numerical value.

Output

• The multiplied variable name: The final numerical result after multiplying the Left argument by the Right argument.

Real-Life Examples

1. Calculate Total Order Cost

   • Scenario: You want to calculate the total cost of an item when a customer orders multiple quantities.
   • Inputs:
     • Left argument: 5 (representing the quantity of items)
     • Right argument: 12.50 (representing the price per item)
   • Result: The action calculates 5 * 12.50 and stores 62.50 in "The multiplied variable name". You can then use this value to update the total order cost for the customer.

2. Determine Area of a Room

   • Scenario: You need to find the area of a rectangular room to estimate how much flooring material is needed.
   • Inputs:
     • Left argument: 10 (representing the length of the room in meters)
     • Right argument: 8 (representing the width of the room in meters)
   • Result: The action calculates 10 * 8 and stores 80 in "The multiplied variable name". This value represents the room's area in square meters.

3. Project Future Sales

   • Scenario: You want to project next month's sales based on this month's sales and an expected growth factor.
   • Inputs:
     • Left argument: 15000 (representing current month's sales)
     • Right argument: 1.10 (representing a 10% growth factor, i.e., 1 + 0.10)
   • Result: The action calculates 15000 * 1.10 and stores 16500 in "The multiplied variable name". This value is your projected sales for the next month.
