Summary  
This chapter introduces basic arithmetic operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—using operators (+, –, *, /) and functions (SUM, PRODUCT) to compute results over individual values or ranges.

General domain of usage  
Spreadsheets

### **Task: Working with Basic Arithmetic Operations in Spreadsheets**
 
You have the following data in your spreadsheet:

| A  | B  | C  |
|----|----|----|
| 12 | 4  |    |
| 8  | 2  |    |
| 6  | 3  |    |

You need to enter a formula in **C1** that multiplies the value in **A1** by the value in **B1**, then copy it down for the other rows.  


Which formula should you enter in **C1** to ensure it works correctly after copying?
