From the menu perception, we understand that multiplication simply means repetition or continuation.
To multiply means where others stop, you continue. Giving extra support, assistance and encouragement. That is, going the extra mile (encouragement).

Multiplication is a key to a standard society. Multiplication is an atom of love because it gives encouragement.
