negative times negative equals positive
negative times positive equals.....you subtract the bigger number by the smaller number and keep the sign of the bigger number
positive times positive equals positive
im pretty sure thats right but i would make sure with your math teacher abt the second one i said
Multiplying or dividing a positive and negative gives a negative result. Multiplying or dividing two negatives gives a positive result.
It the two rational numbers have different signs, then the answer will be negative, otherwise it will be positive.
Like signs give a positive answer. Unlike signs give a negative answer.
divide them or multiply then put a negative because to different signs make a negative to of the same signs make a positive
Dividing a negative number by a positive number results in a negative answer.
Multiplying or dividing a positive and negative gives a negative result. Multiplying or dividing two negatives gives a positive result.
positive and positive are positive positive and negative are negative negative and negative is positive
Divide as you would divide positive fractions. That is, convert both fractions to positive, then do the division. After that, apply the rules for dividing positive and negative numbers. For example, if one of the fractions is positive and the other negative, the answer will be negative.
When adding- yes When subtracting-no When multiplying-no When dividing-yes
positive x positive = positive negative x negative = positive positive x negative = negative negative x positive = negative The same rules apply for dividing, since dividing is actually multiplying by the reciprical.
i dunno if this is the answer youre looking for. negative x negative = positive negative x positive = negative positive x positive = positive same thing with dividing integers its really simple.
It the signs of the two numbers that you are multiplying or dividing is the same, then the answer is positive, otherwise the answer is negative. Remember though, that division by 0 is not defined.
multiplying and dividing a negative number will "flip" the sign of the other number. So multiplying two negative numbers will produce a positive number. Multiplying one positive and one negative number will produce a negative. And of course two positive numbers yield a positive.
The rules for dividing negative numbers is the same as multiplying them. A negative number multiplied/divided by a negative number is positive and a negative number multiplied/divided by a positive number is negative.
If you are dividing a positive by a negative, yes. If you are dividing a negative by a negative, you will get a positive.
It's a positive number. Here's the rule: In multiplication and division . . . -- If both numbers have the same sign, then the result of multiplying or dividing them is positive. -- If the two numbers have different signs, then the result of multiplying or dividing them is negative.
It is equivalent to dividing by ten to the equivalent positive power.
