Question

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

Answer 1

Justify the given condition with examples:

The numbers from $0$ to $\infty$ are whole numbers.

We know that any whole number when multiplied by $0$ gives $0$ as the result.

Examples:

$\bullet$$0\times 0=0$

$\bullet$$2\times 0=0$

$\bullet$$9\times 0=0$

$\bullet$$22\times 0=0$

Hence, the product of two whole numbers is $0$ only when one or both numbers are $0$.
