The assertion in the question is false. The result of a multiplication depends on the values.

Given two numbers X and Y,

if X < 0 and if Y < 0 then X*Y is greater than either;

if X > 1 and if Y > 1 then X*Y is greater than either;

if X < 0 and if Y > 1 then X*Y is smaller than either;

if X > 1 and if Y < 0 then X*Y is smaller than either;

if 0 < X < 1 and if 0 < Y < 1 then X*Y is smaller than either;

If X < 0 and if 0 < Y < 1 then X*Y is greater than X but smaller than Y;

If 0 < X < 1 and if Y > 1 then X*Y is greater than X but smaller than Y;

If 0 < X < 1 and if Y < 0 then X*Y is smaller than X but greater than Y;

If X > 1 and if 0 < Y < 1 then X*Y is smaller than X but greater than Y.

Does a positive plus a negtitve equal positive?

I think you're mixed up with the multiplication rules. But I know a much easier trick for multiplication rule. You count the number of negatives there are in the operation. If the number of negatives is an even number than the answer is positive. If there is an odd amount then the answer is negative. his only works for multiplication and division. You won't know if the answer os a positive plus a negative is until you determine the numbers. For example: 4+(-2)=2 but 2+(-4)=-2 If the positive number is bigger than the negative number (not counting the negative sign) than yes, the answer is positive. If the negative is bigger than your answer is negative. That'll be...1 trust point now.
