inequality sign
You will end up with a positive number. With integers, if you multiply or divide an even amount of negative numbers, the answer will be positive and if you multiply or divide an odd amount, the answer will be negative.
When you multiply or divide each side of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality sign. For example, if you have ( a < b ) and you multiply both sides by a negative number, the inequality changes to ( -a > -b ). This reversal is crucial to maintain the correct relationship between the two sides of the inequality.
You multiply the negative number by the reciprocal of the fraction.
u only reverse the sign when u multiply or divide by a NEGATIVE number...otherwise u don't change the direction
If you multiply or divide the numbers, the answer will be negative.
Change the direction of the inequality.

You can multiply or divide it by any negative number.
You multiply the negative number by the reciprocal of the fraction.
The inequality sign changes direction. So 2<3 Multiply by -2 and you get -4>-6 (similarly with division).
u only reverse the sign when u multiply or divide by a NEGATIVE number...otherwise u don't change the direction
If you multiply or divide the numbers, the answer will be negative.
The direction of the inequality remains unchanged. The direction changes when you divide or multiply both sides by a negative number. It also changes if both sides are raised to a negative exponent.
whenever you multiply or divide by a negative number
The inequality symbol doesn't change direction in this case.Note that that is the same as adding a positive number.Note also that if you MULTIPLY or DIVIDE by a negative number, then you need to change the direction of the inequality symbol.
When you multiply a positive number by a negative number, the result is always negative. This is because the negative sign indicates a reversal in direction or value. For example, if you multiply 5 (positive) by -3 (negative), the result is -15, reflecting that the product is in the opposite direction of the positive number.
