7 and -1.
Multiplying two negative numbers together gives a positive result. In this instance, -4 x -6 = 24. Therefore, -4 and -6 are both negative integer factors of 24.
If an even number of negative factors are multiplied together (such as 18 factors), the answer will be positive. If there are an odd number of negative factors, the answer will be negative.
Yes. The product of an odd number (21, in this case) of negative factors will be negative; if the number of negative factors is even, the product will be positive.
The product is negative.
Sure. Take any positive number and find its factors. Then, if you make an odd number of the factors negative, you then have a set of factors of the negative of the original composite number. That means that the factors of a negative number are not 'unique'. Take ' 6 ' for example. Its factors are 1, 2, 3, and 6. If you make the '1' or the '2' or the '3' or the '6' negative, then you have four factors of ' -6 '. Are there any other ways to make an odd number of them negative ? I see eight different ways to make an odd number of those four numbers negative. So ' -6 ' has eight different possible sets of factors. Is that weird or what !
1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 6, -6
7 and -1.
Sure thing, honey! The factors of -12 are 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 4, -4, 6, -6, and 12. Just remember, when dealing with negative numbers, the factors can be positive or negative. Hope that clears things up for you!
Multiplying two negative numbers together gives a positive result. In this instance, -4 x -6 = 24. Therefore, -4 and -6 are both negative integer factors of 24.
The factors of -18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 and their negative counterparts. The prime factors are 2 and 3.
Since the producet must be positive 18, both factors must be negative. -1 x -18 , -2 x -9, -3 x -6
If an even number of negative factors are multiplied together (such as 18 factors), the answer will be positive. If there are an odd number of negative factors, the answer will be negative.
The positive integer factors of 54 are:1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54The negative equivalents of these numbers are also factors of 54 - since a negative number multiplied by a negative number is equal to a positive, you can say, for example, -54 x -1 = 54. In which case, the negative factors of 54 are:-1, -2, -3, -6, -9, -18, -27, -54
The factors of -42 are : -1, 1, -2, 2, -3, 3, -6, 6, -7, 72 × -21 = -42 (two times negative twenty-one). -2 × 21 = -42 (negative two times twenty-one). There are many other numerals that can be used, simply have a negative somewhere in the equation.
42
-1, 1, 2, -2, 3,-3, 4, -4, 6, -6-12, 12
