Is there a function like "bcadd" except it performs multiplication?

I'm hoping to do some math operations on numbers being represented as strings. So far, I haven't found anything that could do multiplication.

Thanks!

You need of the bcmul() method. You too can take a look on BC Math functions.

Example:

echo bcmul('2.123456', '4.7891011', 6); // 6 is the precision
