A terminal zero is a $0$ that appears at the end of a number. For example, the number $3,800$ has two terminal zeros.
How many terminal zeroes does $40 \cdot 6 \cdot 75 \cdot 12$ have?

I just did the multiplication, then counted the terminal zeros.
40 • 6 • 75 • 12 = 216,000 I count three of them.
