The multiplicative digital root of a positive integer n is found by multiplying the digits of n together, then repeating this operation until only a single digit remains. This single-digit number is called the multiplicative digital root of n.
Multiplicative digital roots depend upon the base in which n is written. If the term is used without qualification, it is assumed that n is written in base 10.
Multiplicative digital roots are the multiplicative equivalent of digital roots.

Famous quotes containing the word root:
“Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes shall outlive this powerful rime;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
And broils root out the work of masonry,
Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
The living record of your memory.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
