Not where I lived. (Those x's would have been a nightmare for the
teacher who had to mark people's test answers.)

> x ⋅ y

Yes. After all, it would never get mixed up with the decimal comma.

> x y

Not to multiply numbers with each other.

Not where I lived.

> x ÷ y

Not that one, either.

               x
We only had:  ---
               y
