Question

19. Jaylen makes the statement shown below. "When multiplying two whole numbers that end in zeros, the

product always has the exact same number of zeros at the end as the number of zeros from the end of the two
numbers combined. For example, the product of 70 x 300 has exactly three zeros at the end since 70 ends in
one zero and 300 ends in two zeros."
Which expression proves Jaylen's statement is not correct?
A. 20 x 100
B. 20 x 700
C. 50 x 600
D. 90 x 500

Answer 1

50 x 600= 30,000 which has more zeros than 50 and 600 combined
