No, it is only true of "opposite" refers to additive inverses. "Opposite" can also refer to reciprocals and then the statement will rarely be true.

sometimes true


What are the two conditional statements from the following Two numbers are reciprocals if and only if their product is 1?

If two numbers are reciprocals, then their product is 1. If the product of two numbers is 1, then they are reciprocals.


If you have a product of two numbers and you find the product of the opposites of the numbers you get the same result.?

yes. An opposite number is the negative of a positive number, for example -5 and +5 are opposite numbers. Since minus x plus is minus and plus x minus is minus and plus x plus is plus and minus x minus is plus then the product of opposites is the same.

Why is it that the LCM and the GFC seem to be opposites of the same thing?

Very astute. The LCM and the GCF have an inverse relationship. Since their product equals the product of the original two numbers, the larger the GCF gets, the smaller the LCM is and vice versa.


Is this statement true if the product of two integers is divisible by 6 one of the integers is also divisible by 6?

That is false. This type of statement is only true for prime numbers, not for compound numbers such as 6. Counterexample: 2 x 3 = 6


How would you Explain how you would decide whether the product of three numbers is positive or negative?

If all three numbers are positive then the product obviously has to be positive. If TWO of the three numbers are negative, then the product is also positive. But if exactly ONE of the three numbers is negative or if all THREE are negative, then the product must be negative. In general, a product of numbers is negative if an ODD NUMBER of the terms is negative.


Can 28 be a product of prime numbers?

No, because 28 can only be calculated as a product in the following ways: 1 x 28 2 x 14 4 x 7 In the above cases, 28, 14 and 4 are all non-prime numbers, which means that 28 cannot be a product of 2 prime numbers alone.


What two numbers have a product of 108 and a quotient of 12?

Either of the following pairs: (-36, -3) or (36, 3)


What is the product of 50?

The product of 50 itself does not really exist, but could be said to be 50. The definition of a product is the answer you get when two numbers are multiplied together. For example the product of 13 and 5 is 65.50 is the product of the following whole numbers:1 & 502 & 255 & 102, 5 & 5It is also the product of non-integer numbers, examples of which include, but are not limited to:0.5 & 1002.5, 4 & 52.5, 2, 2 & 52.5 & 20


How do you determine if the product is negative or positive for multiplication for maths and integers?

The following rules apply to all real numbers.if either number is zero, then the product is zero.if the signs of two numbers are the same, their product is positive; if the signs are different then the product is negative.for the product of three or more numbers, the associative property can be used to find the product two-at-a-time.
