It is NOT saying that multiplying zero by itself will equal one. Just look at 6 to the power 0. There is no 6 in your equation, only a 1. The "6x" part has been "lost" as a "number on the end of each row".
You're multiplying zero, zero times, and in essence doing nothing at all. Since the default is one, the answer is one.
6 to the power 4 is 6x6x6x6x1.
6 to the power 3 is 6x6x6x1.
6 to the power 2 is 6x6x1.
6 to the power 1 is 6x1.
6 to the power 0 is 1.Therefore, every time we go down one, we lose a number on the end of each row.
So, 0 to the power 0 is 1.
What I don't get is that it's saying here that if you multiply zero by itself you get 1. In simpler terms one is equal to zero.
