These numbers are -12 and -8.
If the numbers have to be positive, at least one of the two factor must be 1. In that case the product will be greater than or equal to 1 and equal to the other factor.If the numbers can be negative, in addition to the first case, any product of a positive and a negative integer will be less than or equal to both of the two factors. The product is negative so it's automatically less than the positive factor. If the positive factor is 1, the product is equal to the negative factor; if the positive factor is > 1 the product is less than the negative factor. E.g.1 * -14 = -14 which is equal to -14 and less than 1-3 * 5 = -15, which is less than both 5 and -3
It means that one factor is greater than (>) or less than (<) some other factor.
A negative number is defined as a number that is less than zero. Positive numbers, on the other hand, are more than zero. You can see that positive numbers are greater than negative numbers because they are all above zero, which negative numbers are not.
A negative number is less than its absolute value.

The product will be less than the other factor.
If there are three factors, then one of them being less than 1 does not imply anything about the product of all three and either of the other two factors. For example, 2 = 0.5*1*4 where the first factor is less than 1. The product 2 is less than one of the other factors but bigger than the last.

1 is the number less than fifty with the fewest number of factors. All other numbers have at least two factors (1, and the integer itself).
Any number is a factor and a multiple of itself. Other factors are less than the number, other multiples are more. 5 is a factor of 10. 10 is a multiple of 5.
This is a clever question. I would say: "Always". To be more precise: The product is never greater than either factor, and if neither factor is ' 1 ', then the product is always less than both.
When one of the numbers is positive and the other is negative.
If one of the numbers is negative, but the other is positive, then the product is negative - and therefore smaller than both numbers in the question. For example, 2 x -4 = -8. ===================================== Another contributor added: Also, whenever the absolute magnitude of both factors is less than ' 1 ', the absolute magnitude of the product is less than either factor.
greater
When one factor is less than one, the product will be less than the other factor.
The terms (factors) used in multiplication are the multiplicand (the factor being multiplied), the multiplier (the factor that the multiplicand is multiplied by) and the product (the answer, or results of the multiplication). Any time either of the factors is greater than the other by at least one, the product will always be greater than the largest factor.
