If 2 + 2 = 10 then why do we multiply it by 4? Can you help me out? Here is the question. It says that 2 + 2 = 10, that should be 10. However, it says to multiply it by 4. Why do we multiply it by 4? Thanks. A: There is no multiplication here. The book means that if you were to write the same addition as $$2+2=10$$ it would be wrong, because $2+2$ is an addition and $10$ is a number. So it is a mistake in a book or on a worksheet. What the book is trying to get at is that you can not add or subtract two things and make up a new thing. When the book says that you should multiply, they mean you have to rewrite the thing. --- All Hail the Ticket Oak. All Hail the Ticket Oak. ... Copied to Clipboard!
