Question #94a46

Answer 1

`1` is the multiplicative identity.

Explanation:

The property being demonstrated is a property of the number `1`, namely that it is the multiplicative identity. This means that the product of any number `x` and `1` will be `x`, i.e.

`x xx 1 = 1 xx x = x` for any `x`

A similar property is that `0` is the additive identity, as

`0 + x = x + 0 = x` for any `x`
