question

Type the missing number.

Hint: Use the zero property of multiplication.

0 = 3 ×

key idea

Zero property:
Multiplying by 0 always gives 0.

solution

To find the missing value, use properties of multiplication to make both sides of the equation look the same.

The zero property says multiplying by 0 always gives 0.

0

=

3 × ?

Apply the zero property

3 × 0

=

3 × ?

Apply the zero property

Now match up the two sides of the equation.

3 × 0

=

3 × ?

So, the missing value is 0.
