So how do you write equations, specifically notations used for division and multiplication? Do you use × or · for multiplication? Do you use ÷ or / for division?

I usually use the multiplication sign for multiplication, and the dot for dot product.
I usually use the solidus for division when typing, but that's only because it's more convenient inline than using the vinculum. I rarely use the obelus, but that's just my preference. My strongest preference is for the vinculum, by far. ETA: ...and I use parentheses generously to avoid ambiguity. |
