8. In the real number system, if the product of
two numbers is zero, then at least one of the numbers must be zero.
This is not true in clock arithmetic. Give an example of two nonzero
numbers whose product is 0 (mod n). Specify n. What property
must n have so that the product of two numbers is never zero unless one
of them is zero?
