You are fundamentally making a mistake here. Multiplication is repeated addition, meaning the same number is being added that many times.

Therefore, if we say 1*2 = 2, it means 1 is added twice, i.e. 1 + 1 = 2.

Similarly, 2*3 = 6, meaning 2 is added thrice, i.e. 2 + 2 + 2 = 6.

In your case, you are confusing 1*100 as 1*1*1, which is fundamentally wrong.

1*1*1*..*1 (100 terms) = 1^100 = 1.

I hope you have understood the difference between the two concepts.
