Imagine you have apples that you have put into groups, with each group having 5 apples in it. If you take one group, you have 5 apples. This is the same as 5 x 1. 5 is how many apples per group you have. 1 is how many groups you take. If you take two groups of apples, you have 10 apples. This is the same as 5 x 2. Now consider if you don't take any groups of apples. How many apples would you have? You wouldn't have any. This is the same as 5 x 0.
