When you multiply a whole number by 10, what is always true about the ones place in the product?

Answer: It is always zero.. is this correct

thank you Ms. Sue

Right!

You're welcome, Khrys.

Yes, that is correct! When you multiply a whole number by 10, the ones place in the product is always zero.

To understand why, let's think about what it means to multiply by 10. Multiplying a number by 10 is the same as adding a zero at the end of the number.

For example, let's say we have the number 5. When we multiply it by 10, we can think of it as adding a zero at the end: 5 * 10 = 50.

No matter which whole number you start with, when you multiply it by 10, you will always add a zero to the end. Therefore, the ones place in the product will always be zero.
