For my spanish homework today, we are learning about numbers and math for some reason.
How would I say things like times or divided by in spanish?
I understand menos and y are for subtracion and addition but nevered learned multiplacation and division in spanish.
Why am I doing math in spanish? Who knows?? Oh well, I'll just go with it...

Puedese decir: dos mas dos son cuatro, o bien: dos y dos son cuatro. - LuisCache, Nov 9, 2011

"
times" = "por"; dos por dos son cuatro.
I think "divided by" = "dividido por"; cuatro divido por dos son dos.
También: cuatro entre dos son dos.

no tenemos que decir "es uno?" sería "son uno?" - unMica, Nov 8, 2011
I looked this up unMica. You always use son, even if the answer is one. - Jeremias, Nov 8, 2011
muy agradecido jeremías. intenté buscarlo pero no había mucha información y me rendí fácilmente :P - unMica, Nov 8, 2011
No: uno por uno es uno, y dos entre dos es uno. - LuisCache, Nov 9, 2011
