(24) x (-2) = -48
No they are not the same.
(-24)2=576. If you're wondering why the answer is positive it's because a negative times a negative is a positive number.
A negative e. i. 4X-6=-24
-16
A positive times a negative equals a negative.
-16 - 8 = -24
The problem 20 minus negative 24 equals 44 because two negatives become a positive.
Positive(+) times a Positive(+) equals a positive(+). i.e. 8x3=24 Negative(-) times a Negative(-) equals a positive(+). i.e. -3x(-5)=15 Positive(+) times Negative(-) equals a negative(-). i.e. 8x(-8)= -64 Negative(-) times a Positive(+) equals a negative(-). i.e. -15x4= -60
4 x -6 = -24 A good way to remember how to do this is to multiply the two numbers as you would if they were both positive. Then, if only one of the numbers is a negative, the answer will be a negative. If both numbers are a negative, the answer will be a positive.
Consider that you have a negative times a positive, so the final result will be negative.Work out 24 x 2/3 and make sure the result is negative.When multiplying numbers, there are 2 different cases to think about with regard to the signs of the numbers:If the signs of the numbers are the same (positive and positive, or negative and negative) then the result will be positive;Otherwise if the signs are different (that is if one number is positive and the other is negative) the result will be negative.
