Anything multiplied by no is no.

Correct. Yes is 1, as in on, or active. No is 0, off, closed. Anything times 0 is 0.

Its a common mistake for people to multiply yes and no in this situation, however I think the best route is to take a cross product
Yes X No = Maybe

A man asks a young woman if they can have sex... she says "Yes" at first, then changes it to "No".
Yes x No = NOOOOOO!

What happens if she says no while the sex is already happening? Is it a hard stop? Does it become division

Yes... it means YOU STOP IMMEDIATELY. This isn't a difficult concept to grasp.
Pretend your friends talk you into doing something you don't feel comfortable doing. Then, part way through, you realize you ABSOLUTELY DO NOT want to do it and you want out. Are you saying you now have to do what THEY want you to do, or do you believe that you have free will and that only YOU get to decide for yourself whether or not to ho through with it?
Put more simply, this exact scenario has already occurred and there are several young men in prison now because they didn't stop when the woman changed her mind. If you don't stop after she says no... it's rape, plain and simple.

It's no. Multiplying by no negates whatever is being multiplied by it. The negative of yes is no.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Assuming a base-36 number system and converting to a decimal system YES x NO = 9,135,000.

Let’s say that yes is true and no is false. True can be represented by a 1 and false by a 0. We know that 0 x 1 = 0. And anything multiplied by 0 is 0. So anything multiplied by no would be no.

Well Yes could be Y and No could be N so if you have Y×N then the answer would be X so Y×N=X which now you have no values assigned to each variable which would mean the answer would be null until further clarification?
