you get a positive.
The answer is positive.
GenelleBabee: it becomes a positive because when you multiply two negatives it becomes a positive, & it's the same thing with division.
Yes. The negatives cancel out.
Only if you multiply or divide them.
When combining (adding) two negatives you get a negative. When multiplying two negatives you will get a positive.
Adding negatives? You get a negative. But if you multiply/divide 2 negatives, that's a positive.
A positive because two negatives cancel each other out to create a positive. Example: -40/-10= 4
you get a smaller number!
Actually it does, whenever you mulitply and divide two negative and two positive numbers they always equal a positive number. When you multiply and divide a negative and positive they always equal a negative number.
When two negatives are next to each other, they cancel each other out and result in a positive. This rule applies in mathematical operations such as multiplication or division.
It is said that two negatives equal a positive when multiplying them with coefficients.
Two negatives make a positive in multiplication and division
