Multiplying a number by 2

To multiply a number by 2 means to take that number twice — in other words, to double it. For example,

2\times 2=4

3\times 2=6

4\times 2=8

. The larger the number, the larger the result. The times table for 2 is easy to remember: every answer is an even number.

Multiply by 2 — double the number

Examples:

2\times 2=4

5\times 2=10

8\times 2=16

The result is always even
