Question

If the product of two whole numbers is 1, can we say that one or both of them will be 1? Justify through examples.

Answer 1

If the product of 2 numbers is 1, then both the numbers have to be equal to 1.

For example, 1 × 1 = 1

However, 1 × 6 = 6

Clearly, the product of two whole numbers will be 1 in the situation when both numbers to be multiplied are 1.
