Zero Property

Factors are the numbers multiplied to get a product.

                                  3    x    4     =   12
                                           factor   x   factor  =  product

 

If one of the factors is 0, the
product will always be 0.
0 x 4 = 0 4 x 0 = 0
0 x 6 = 0 6 x 0 = 0
0 x 27 = 0 27 x 0 = 0
0 x 316 = 0 316 x 0 = 0


Examples
