3-5 x 35 = 9
(3÷3÷3÷3÷3) × (3×3×3×3×3) = 8.999999991 (rounded to 9)
Negative times positive equals negative.
The smallest positive integer is 1. 1 is the multiplicative identity; ie anything times 1 is itself. The greatest negative integer is the most positive negative integer which is -1. Therefore the product of the greatest negative integer and the smallest positive integer is the greatest negative integer which is -1.

The multiplication rule of thumb always states that a negative number times a negative number results in a positive number. Since an even number is always divisible by two, any value raised to an even integer power will result in a positive number. However, a basic proof is presented as follows: (-A) * (-A) = A^2 ((-A) * (-A)) ^ 2 = ((-A * -A) * (-A * -A)) = A^2 * A^2 = A ^ 4 ...
positive
Yes, and also a negative integer divided by a negative integer is equal to a positive number (but not necessarily an integer).
A negative integer. Every time.
Negative, as for example: 5 times -4 = -20
Because negative numbers multiplied by themselves three times will be negative.
Let's use N to represent any number.N x N = NN x -N = -N-N x -N = NSo the rules are:A positive integer times a positive integer will be a positive integerA positive integer times a negative integer will be a negative integerA negative integer times a negative integer will be a positive integer.

The index or the exponent - but only if it is a non-negative integer.
Negative times positive equals negative.
The smallest positive integer is 1. 1 is the multiplicative identity; ie anything times 1 is itself. The greatest negative integer is the most positive negative integer which is -1. Therefore the product of the greatest negative integer and the smallest positive integer is the greatest negative integer which is -1.
That has no integer solution. Three times an integer is another integer; if you subtract to integers, you get an integer again, not a fraction.
positive times negative equals negative
