multiplying and dividing positive and negative numbers
How:
(-)(-)= +
(+)(-)= -
if there is 1 negative is negative
if there are 2 negatives is positive
Ex:
1. (-5)(3) = -15
2. (-20)(12) = -240
3. (-2)(x) = -2x
4. (-12) ÷ 4 = -3
5. -8 ÷ 1/2 = (-8)(2) = -16
try out these problems by yourself
1. (-8)(3)= ?
2. (4)(-4)= ?
3. (-7)(-1.2) = ?
4. (-11)(1/8) = ?
5. (-15)(3/5) = ?
6. (-3)(-1)(-6) = ?
7. (5)(-2)(7) = ?
8. (20) ÷ (-5) = ?
9. (-36)(-6) = ?
