As someone with an almost solely intuitive understanding of mathematics, I still find the "repeated addition" idea useful when it comes to fractions. If 4 * 4 is 4 repeated 4 times (4 + 4 + 4 + 4). Then 1/2 * 1/2 is a half repeated half times, or a half of a half, which is a quarter. The numbers get hard to work with but the intuitive idea is still there. |
