Why does any numbers times 0 equal 0?

Answer 1

I prefer to think there's a basic rule that's not explained, and it goes like this: When we multiply something by zero, we're just saying it wrong, as zero actually trumps any number and has to be moved to the front of the equation. So, 6 x 0 isn't really what's being asked, it's 0 X 6. I have to think this way because if I hold 2 Cokes in my hand and multiply them by zero, I am still holding 2 Cokes. But if I have to imagine a zero trumps what I'm holding in my hand, the Cokes "disappear" (they become zero) and any number I follow with will now yield the proper answer, which is of course, zero. This is not a sly play on Coke Zero; I just saw that as I am proofreading. :)

Answer 2

Multiplication is a mathematical operation that combines two numbers to give a product. When any number is multiplied by zero, the result is always zero because of the property of zero called the "zero property of multiplication." This property states that any number multiplied by zero equals zero, regardless of the value of the number. This can be understood through the concept of groups of zero, where if you have zero groups of any number, the total will always be zero.

Answer 3

if you have zero of anything then you don't have any of anything which means you have nothing. you can have any amount of nothings but you still won't have anything.
