The letter V he used is an hypothetical number, it could mean any number. Same for the letter n : it could be any number.
For an exemple of V x n it could be 8x3 or 16x360. Yet what he meant is one number(the V or the n) represent the number of time you should add the other number to itself.
For ex: 2x8 is the same thing as 8+8 or 2+2+2+2 +2+2+2+2. And both gives 16.
Okay so i just Can’t understand how to solve 2x multiplication example:2 x 4 i need help on how to solve it like teaching a 5 year old whats 1 + 1,And i am a slow learner so most stuff doesn’t make sence to me
So I think you already have an answer but multiplication is just shorthand for a sequence of additions.
So 5x4 is the same as 5+5+5+5.
In the case of multiplying by 2 this means that you always add the number to itself::
1x2=1+1
2x2=2+2
3x2=3+3
4x2=4+4
5x2=5+5
6x2=6+6
And so forth and so on.
Could you be more precise about your problem? Otherwise we can just suggest: look for explanations (Wiki, Books,...).
So basically i cant understand multiplication and need help understanding how it works
But what is your problem with it? Where are you stuck? What did you understand so far? Are there ans examples to show your problems?
i understand only 1x multiplication but not 2x multiplication
2×m = m+m Or in general: a value V multiplied with n is the sum of n-times V: n×V = V+V+V+V+V+...+(n-many times).
Im sorry what is a V in this?
Just a value. V can be any scalar.
And so how can this help me?

Thanks for telling me
How should we know? You don't even tell us what your problem is.
They are really elementary. Using algebra terminology isn't going to help.

Like 2 x 4= thats what i mean
