C Program to Multiply two numbers using Addition operator

In this tutorial, we will write a C program to multiply using the plus operator (+). You may go through the following topics in C to understand the program better.

Multiplication of two numbers using plus arithmetic operator:
To find the result of the product of two numbers, we need to add the first number to the second number of times

Example:

Input:
First number: 5
Second number: 3

Output:
Multiplication by addition of 5 and 3 is: 15

Solution:
Multiplication is = 5 + 5 + 5 = 15

C Program to Multiply number using Addition operator

//C program to multiply two numbers using plus operator
 
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
    int num1, num2;
    int result = 0, i;
     
    printf("Enter the first number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num1);
    printf("Enter the second number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num2);
     
    result=0;

    for(i = 1; i <= num2; i++)
        result += num1;
    

    printf("\nResult of Multiplication of %d and %d through Addition: %d\n", num1, num2, result);

    return 0;
}

Output:

Enter the first number: 5
Enter the second number: 3

Result of Multiplication of 5 and 3 through Addition: 15
