When multiplying two numbers together when negatives are involved, first multiply them together normally. In this case, 2x3=6

The next step is to find out if it's +6 or -6. You need to luck at the question again:

If we multiplied two positives, the answer is positive. If we multiplied two negatives, the answer is positive. Otherwise, the answer is negative.

In the question, we multiplied a positive by a negative, so the result will be negative. The answer, therefore, is -6
