two negative factors together would make a positive.
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.
The answer will always be Negative in Sign. If they are the same sign, it will always be Positive in Sign.
The product of 2 (or more) positives is positive. The product of 2 negatives is positive. So product of 6 negatives = 3*(product of two negatives) = product of 3 positives = positive. So overall sign is positive.
The product of negative number and a positive number is always a negative. The product of two positive numbers, or two negative numbers, is always a positive.
No. The product of two opposite numbers is always negative. Negative x positive = negative and Positive x negative = negative
NegativeIf the two factors have the same sign, their product is positive.If the two factors have different signs, their product is negative.
NegativeIf the two factors have the same sign, their product is positive.If the two factors have different signs, their product is negative.
In mathematics, the "sign" of a product refers to whether the result of multiplying two or more numbers is positive, negative, or zero. The product is positive if there is an even number of negative factors, negative if there is an odd number of negative factors, and zero if any of the factors is zero. Understanding the sign of a product is essential for solving inequalities and analyzing functions.

negative x negative = positive
If there are an odd number of numbers with a negative sign then the sign of the product is negative. Otherwise it is positive.
positive
negative
The product of two integers will be: * Zero, if one factor, or both, are zero. * Positive, if both factors have the same sign (both positive, or both negative) * Negative, if the two factors have different signs. Actually, these rules apply to all real numbers, not just to integers.
It would really be tough to explain why that's true, because it's not. If two factors have the same sign, then their product is positive.
First, we are not interested for the sign of the numbers, because the product of two negative numbers is always positive, so we need to find the two consecutive factors of 240, which are 15 and 16. Thus, the numbers are -16 and -15.
