The image explains the
Zero Property of Multiplication.
Here’s what it says in simple terms:
- When you multiply
any number by
0, the answer is always
0.
- It doesn’t matter if the zero comes first or second — the result is still 0.
- Examples given:
→ A × 0 = 0
→ 6 × 0 = 0
This rule works for every number — big, small, positive, negative (though negatives aren’t shown here), even fractions or decimals. But since this is for a school student, we’ll stick to whole numbers.
Let’s test it with another example to be sure:
→ 100 × 0 = ? → Answer: 0
→ 0 × 7 = ? → Answer: 0
→ 3 × 0 = ? → Answer: 0
It always gives 0. That’s why it’s called the “zero property” — because zero has this special power in multiplication.
So, if your homework asks you to solve something like “8 × 0” or “0 × 9”, just remember:
anything times zero equals zero.
Final Answer:
When any number is multiplied by 0, the product is always 0. For example: 6 × 0 = 0 and 0 × 6 = 0.
