First, multiply the original number by 10. Then multiply the original number by 2. Add the two answers that you got and you have just multiplied by 12. For Example: 7x12=(7x10)+(7x2) 70+14 84
Positive 12 plus negative 4 equals 8. When you add a negative number, it effectively subtracts from the positive number. Therefore, 12 - 4 = 8.

Multiply the number of feet times 12, and add to the inches.
When you multiply a negative number by a positive number, the result is always a negative number. This is due to the rules of multiplication, where the sign of the product is determined by the signs of the factors. Specifically, a negative times a positive yields a negative. For example, multiplying -3 by 4 results in -12.

You get 50.
A negative multiplied by another negative will always give a positive answer. E.g. -4 x - 3 = 12
A negative number e.g 3 times -4 = -12 Do the normal sum then add in the minus (when timing) :)
The answer to the problem ( 12 \times (-6) ) is (-72). When you multiply a positive number by a negative number, the result is negative. Therefore, ( 12 \times (-6) = -72 ).
