Solution

The correct option is B

Whole number


Whole numbers are closed under multiplication, which means that the product of any two whole numbers is always a whole number.

Let's take any two whole numbers, say 0 and 7. The product of these numbers is:
0×7=0
Notably, 0 is also a whole number.
Hence, the product of two whole numbers is always a whole number.
