Ok, maybe we are discussing semantics here, but let's see if this makes sense:

If a*b=c , you don't "find c" multiplying a*b.

"c" is just the same as "a*b". It's just another way to represent a*b.

"c" is "a*b".

Numbers are not found.

Measurements could be found, but not numbers. Numbers are by themselves.

You find the 'surface of a rectangle' with sides lengths a & b, by multiplying a*b. Right.

But you don't find numbers, just measures.

Does it make sense?

As I said, maybe it's just semantics...
