The Natural numbers together with the number 0 are called whole numbers.

____________________________

Solution:

We know that on multiplying any whole number by 1 we get the same whole number.

1 is the identity for multiplication of whole numbers or multiplicative identity for whole numbers.

A number remain unchanged when multiplied by 1.

For e.g

6×1= 6 , 15×1= 15, 0×1= 0, 1×1= 1

Hence the product of two whole numbers will be equal to 1 if and only if both whole numbers are 1.
