Answer 1

Given: If the product of two whole numbers is zero, can we say that one or both of them will be zero. Justify through examples.

Yes, it it true that if the product of two whole numbers is zero then one or both of them will be zero.

Example: Let's take$0$and $1$ two whole numbers.

product of 0 and 1 :

$$\begin{gathered} 0\times 1=0 \\ 0\times 0=0 \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, If the product of two whole numbers is zero, we can say that one or both of them will be zero.
