we have that

Marge says

7*0=7+0

7*0=0 ----> all numbers multiplied by zero is zero

and

7+0=7 ----> any number adds to zero is the same number

so

0=7 -----> is not true

therefore

Marge is not correct

Rules

Any number multiplied by zero is zero ------> multiplying by zero (Zero property of multiplication)

and

the Identity Law of Addition ----> Any number added to zero is equal to itself
