Let's use N to represent any number.

  1. N x N = N
  2. N x -N = -N
  3. -N x -N = N

So the rules are:

  1. A positive integer times a positive integer will be a positive integer
  2. A positive integer times a negative integer will be a negative integer
  3. A negative integer times a negative integer will be a positive integer.
