In mathematics, a property is a characteristic of an object that can be expressed as a statement about the object. All objects have at least one property; for example, all squares are rectangles. In linear algebra, the zero property is a property of a vector. A vector has this property if it equals the sum of its components multiplied by itself. The zero property is also called the commutative or associative law or rule of multiplication or distributive law or rule of multiplication(or simply, commutative property of multiplication). It works in both cases as long as there are no zeros along the way.
Property of zero:
Zero is the only number with no property. Any statement about numbers other than zero has some unique property, but this does not apply to zero. The definitions and properties for all positive integers could be rephrased for negative or fractional arguments without interruption, but this does not work for zero.
All zero property
All zero property states that any number multiplied by zero will result in the same number. This concept is readily observable in the real world with numbers written in binary, such as 00000000.
In other words, all numbers multiplied by zeros will produce zeros in the result, so this is the reason why we say “All zero property.”
For Example, 9.8 represents a number with 9 in the tenths position and 8 in the hundredths position; thus, multiplying 9.8 times 0.1 resulted in 0.098, which is where the decimal place should be for this number (the tenths place).
The answer, 0.098, is the result of multiplying 9.8 times 0.1, and the decimal place should be at the tenths position. This statement is equivalent to 9 times 0.
Commutative property of multiplication:
The commutative property of multiplication basically means that the product of any two numbers is the same regardless of the order they are multiplied.
The proof of the commutative property of multiplication:
Suppose that the numbers are not in increasing and decreasing order. If we multiply them in any order, the product will be different than if the orders are switched.
Since this procedure does not change the product, it cannot change it for all pairs of numbers. Since we can always give an example with numbers other than zero to show that this procedure does not work, we can conclude that there must be a case where it does work.
Relations between All zero property and Commutative property of multiplication:
All zero property is a concept that has many different applications and relies on the commutative property of multiplication. One such application is when we have a two-digit number with two identical digits. Two different digits are equal to zero, and so we have a two-digit number with two identical digits. We will call this a 0-digit number. All-zero property states that if the first digit of a 0-digit number is equal to zero, then the second digit of the same number must be equal to zero.
Examples of All zero properties:
Example 1: Let’s say that 2647 is a 0-digit number, and 2643 is an example of a 1-digit number. As we can see that the first digit of 2647 is equal to zero (264), while the second digit of 2643 is equal to zero (263). We can now say that 0-digit numbers with two identical digits are all-zero numbers.
All zero property states that if the first digits of two different numbers have a shared pattern, then the second digits of these numbers must also have a shared pattern, which means that if the second digits of two different numbers are the same, they must both equal zero.
Example 2: If 712 and 1233 have a shared pattern with their first digit equal to zero, they have a shared pattern with their second digits equal to zero. This means that 1233 is an all-zero number with two identical digits.
All-zero property can check whether two numbers are all-zero numbers or not. We will use the following example for the purpose of illustrating that 1233 and 712 are all-zero numbers.
This example shows that the first digits of 1233 and 712 have a shared pattern equal to zero. The second digit of 1233 equals zero, while the second digit of 712 equals zero. Therefore, we assert that these two numbers are all-zero numbers.
Example 3: We will use the number 2640 to see if it is an all-zero number or not. The factors of 2640 are 2, 4 and 40. With two as the first factor and four as the second factor, we can conclude that the number 2640 is an all-zero number with two identical digits. The digits 2640 are equal to zero, so it is an all-zero number.
We can use the following steps to prove that a number is an all-zero number.
Prove that the first digit of the number is equal to zero by using the commutative property of multiplication. Then we can say that any two digits in the same number with equal values must also be equal to zero.
Conclusion:
Zero is used in many mathematical equations, so it is good to know the properties of zero. The Commutative property of multiplication tells you the order of multiplication does not matter, but it does matter for the number zero. The product of any two numbers is the same regardless of the order multiplied. If you consider two numbers and multiply them, you can change the order and get the same answer.
