I personally don’t think 7 as “seven” or “siete” or “zazpi”. 7 is 7. When learning big number combinations where you put both numbers on top and do it by 10s, I’m in numbers, not in the name of the numbers. I bet learning more than 1 language since I was a toddler enabled the flexibility to then learn the " math language" lol.
When I imagine 5x7 in my brain the answer is 35, not thirty-five (30+5), treinta y cinco(30+5) or hogei ta amabost (20+15 = 20 +10 + 5 don’t ask xD).
7x7 is 47, not berhogeitazazpi (2x20+7), there’s no math link between 7x7 and 2x20+7 besides that the result is the same.

7x7= 49, not 47.
