first of all...... you know that when you add a positive number you advance forward. its like 1+1=2. Its like 1 of you and a clone. You go forward or up in quantity. And so far the forward is up which is 3 then 4 then 5. Its The math that was invented by the Greek and Egyptians. They put forward as the next higher. And positive has higher positive. Its simple place and order of higher value and negatives are of lower value. And multiplication makes higher with higher. Multiplication doesn't make lower unless dealing with negative. But if this was wrong, then the laws of physics will be crazily wrong.

Why is -1 X -1 equals plus 1?
Any time that a negative number is being multipled by another negative number, it equals a positive number. In this case, -1 multiplied by -1 equals 1. Another example of this is -5 multiplied by -5 which equals 25. Though if you multiply a negative by a positve, it equals a negative. If you were to multiply a positive by a positve, it will always equal a positve.
