Question

Find the product 12.34.0.74.91

Answer 1

You are given the factors 12.34.0.74.91. The dots between the factors mean ‘to multiply’. Multiplying 12 by 34 by 0 by 74 by 91 would result to zero. The product of the given numbers is 0. This is due to the zero property of multiplication. Any number multiplied by zero is equal to zero. No matter how long the number you are going to multiply it, if there is a zero between the factors, the answer will always be zero.

Answer 2

12*34 = 408

408*0 = 0

0*74 = 0

0*91 = 0

The answer is 0.

But, you can spare yourself the work, because if the problem has a zero (0) by itself being multiplied, it will always be zero, because anything time zero is zero.

Hope this helps!
