Zero Property

The sum of zero and a number is the same as that number.
6 + 0 = 6	0 + 6 = 6
Think: "same number."

The product of zero and a number is 0.
0 x 4 = 0	4 x 0 = 0
Think: "zero."

Example

3 targets with 0 arrows.

3 x 0 = 0

So, there are 0 arrows in all.

Remember: When one of the factors is zero, the product is zero.

The sum of zero and a number is the same as that number.
