MULTIPLICATION OF INTEGERS

MU

• Positive x positive = positive
• Negative x positive= negative
• Positive x negative = negative
• Negative x negative = positive

The opposite number is the same distance from zero but opposite direction

ELOISE

Positive x positive = positive
Negative x negative = positive
Negative x positive = negative
Positive x negative = negative

EXAMPLE

• 3x (-4) = -12
• -8 x (-2)= 16
• -7 x 3 = -21
• So
• 4 (d) (-2) = -2
• -10 (d) (-5) = 2
• -8 (d) 4 = -2
