Write the rules for determining the sign of the product when multiplying integers. Then, write the rules for determining the sign of the quotient when dividing integers. Use your own words and use complete sentences. Make sure you answer both questions presented in this problem.
i dont how answer it
so how is this?
To multiply or dived signed integers you always multiply or dived the absolute values and us these rules to determine the sign of the answer. When the product of 2 integers or 2 negative integers is positive and when there is a positive integer and a negative integer is negative.
When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive.
Positive x positive = positive
Negative x negative = positive
When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer negative.
Positive x negative = negative
Negative x positive = negative
When you divide two integers with the same sign, the result is always positive. Just divide the absolute values and make the answer positive.
Positive ÷ positive = positive
Negative ÷ negative = positive
When you divide two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just divide the absolute values and make the answer negative.
Positive ÷ negative = negative
Negative ÷ positive = negative
ok thank you
thanks
1. Write the rules for determining the sign of the product when multiplying integers.
2. Then, write the rules for determining the sign of the quotient when dividing integers.
Use your own words and use complete sentences.
The directions call for one explanation for multiplying and a SEPARATE explanation for dividing.
It’s best to follow directions exactly when they are this clearly stated.
