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.

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.


What isThe product of two or more nonzero whole numbers is?

Oh, dude, the product of two or more nonzero whole numbers is just the result you get when you multiply them together. It's like when you combine a bunch of numbers and they have a little math party, and the product is the final number that comes out of it. So, yeah, it's just the fancy math way of saying "the answer you get when you multiply stuff."


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.


Explain Why the product of two nonzero absolute values is always a positive number?

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, so it is always non-negative. When you multiply two nonzero absolute values, you are essentially multiplying two non-negative numbers together. In multiplication, a positive number multiplied by a positive number always results in a positive number, hence the product of two nonzero absolute values is always positive.


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


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.


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.


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.
