👉 In mathematics, "thwacking" is a mathematical operation that involves multiplying two or more numbers together. It is often used in algebraic expressions to simplify and reduce the size of the expression. For example, if you have an expression like 3x^2y + 5xy^2 - 7, you can thwack it by multiplying each term with its corresponding coefficient:
(3
x) (x^2) + (3
y) (y^2
