 The two factors and
the products are parts
of a multiplication
problem.
 In the multiplication
problem, 4 × 5 = 20, the
numbers 4 and 5 are
the factors, while the
number 20 is the
product. 3

 Factors are always whole
numbers or integers and
never decimals or
fractions.
 All even numbers will
have number 2 as their
factor.
 All numbers that end with
5 will have 5 as their
factor.
 All numbers greater than
0 and ending with a 0 will
have 2, 5, and 10 as their 5

6. WHAT IS A FACTORS &
PRODUCT
 Multiplying two whole numbers
gives a product. The numbers
that we multiply are the factors of
the product.
 The result of two or more
numbers when multiplied
together.

7. WHAT IS THE ZERO PROPERTY
OF MULTIPLICATION?
 According to the zero property of
multiplication, the product of any
number and zero, is zero.
 Here are some examples of the zero
property of multiplication.
