When you multiply a nonzero whole number by a fraction less than 1 the product is always less than whole number?

Yes. Math is all about patterns. Every number larger than 1 will make the product larger than the original integer. I could describe this with a limit, but I'll hold off... As the multiplier gets closer to 1, the product gets closer to the original number. Until you hit 1, when it is equal. So if we look at numbers less than 1, we are force to conclude that the produce must be less than the original number, by trichotomy. Meaning there is no other choice: it can't be bigger or the same, so it must get smaller. Hope that clarifies.

When you multiply by 0 the product is always?
The product would always be 0.
When you multiply any number of even numbers will the product always be odd?
No, the product will always be even.
When you multiply a whole number by 10 what is always true about the ones place in the product?
its always the same
When you multiply two fractions why is the product greater than 1?
The product is not always greater than 1.
Which operation will always result in the value of 1 for any nonzero number?
The operation that will always have the result in value of 1 for any nonzero number is Inverse Operation of Multipication.

Why the product of nonzero rational number and a rational number is an irrational?
Actually the product of a nonzero rational number and another rational number will always be rational.The product of a nonzero rational number and an IRrational number will always be irrational. (You have to include the "nonzero" caveat because zero times an irrational number is zero, which is rational)
Is the product of a nonzero rational and a irrational number irrational?
Yes, always.
Is the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number irrational?
Yes, always.
Is the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number rational or irrational?
It is always irrational.
Can you multiply an irrational number by a rational number and the answer is rational?
The product of an irrational number and a rational number, both nonzero, is always irrational
Is the product of a nonzero number and its reciprocal is 0?
Let's say that the nonzero real number is n. Then the reciprocal would be (1/n). So the product is the following n*(1/n)=(n/n)=1 In conclusion the product of any nonzero real number and it's reciprocal is always 1.
When you multiply by 0 the product is always?
The product would always be 0.
What is the product of any nonzero real number and its reciprocal?
The product of any nonzero real number and its reciprocal is the number 1. This can be mathematically given as n multiplied by 1/n, where n represents the nonzero real number. The product of these two terms is 1.
When multiplying fraction by fraction the product will always be?
The only generalisation posible is that it will always be a rational number. The product can be positive or negative; it can be a fraction or an integer, it can be larger or smaller.
When you multiply any number of even numbers will the product always be odd?
No, the product will always be even.
What is always the result of dividing an integer when the divisor is nonzero?
A rational number is always the result of dividing an integer when the divisor is nonzero.
