I need help with this:
0 x -8 (it is 0 multiplied by negative 8)
The answer is came up with is 0 is this correct?
Yes.
0 times anything is still 0.
Think about it.
Ms. Sue, can you check this one, please, this is a word problem, not a greater than or less question.
How much greater than -10.4 is -6.52?
-10.4 - -6.52 = -3.88 is this correct?
Yes, your answer of 0 is correct. When we multiply any number by 0, the product will always be 0. This is because multiplying a number by 0 means adding 0 repeatedly to itself, which doesn't change the value of the number.
To verify this, you can follow these steps:
1. Start with the given multiplication problem: 0 x -8
2. Multiply 0 by -8: 0 x (-8) = 0
3. The result is 0, confirming that your answer is correct.
Therefore, 0 multiplied by -8 equals 0.
