Best Answer

The sign of the factors. These are the rules:

* If there is a zero factor, the product is zero.

* If there is an even number of negative factors (two, four, six, etc. odd factors), the product is positive.

* If there is an odd number of negative factors (one, three, five, etc. odd factors), the productd is negative.
