Property 4  : Multiplicative Property of Zero

                               The product of a number and 0 is always 0. This is known as
                                 Multiplicative Property of Zero.

                               i.e., a × 0 = 0 × a   =   0


            Example  :  Solve : 89 × 0,  653 × 0,  2249 × 0  and  93 × 0

            Solution  :                8 9                6 5 3              2 2 4 9                   9 3


                                 ×        0          ×          0          ×           0          ×       0

                                       0 0                0 0 0              0 0 0 0                   0 0




                                                                       0


                             We concluded that 89 × 0 = 653 × 0 = 2249 × 0 = 93 × 0  =  0




            Property 5  : Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition

                               The sum of two numbers times a third number is equal to the

                                 sum of each addend times the third number.

                               a × ( b + c)  =  (a × b) + (a × c)

            Example  :  Solve : 16 × (18 + 8)  =  (16 × 18) + (16 × 8)

            Solution   :  We first solve,

                            16 × (18 + 8)  =  16 × 26
                                                  =  416

                            Now, (16 × 18) + (16 × 8)                               =      288 + 128

                                                                                    =      416

                            We concluded that 16 × (18 + 8) = (16 × 18) + (16 × 8).

            This is known as Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition                     .
