Answer 2

The product is negative i.e. -1

Explanation: The rules of integer multiplication are:

• A positive integer and a negative integer cannot be multiplied to make a positive integer.
• A positive number is the result of two positive integers.
• Rule three states that the sum of two negative integers is positive.

Given, $(-1)\times (-1)\times (-1)\times ...... 11\ times$

Taking 2 times, $(-1)\times (-1) = 1$

Taking 3 times, $(-1)\times (-1)\times (-1) = -1$

From the above equation, we find that if -i is multiplied even no. of times, then the product is positive, i.e. 1. However, if (-1) is multiplied for odd no. of times, the product is negative, i.e. -1

As 11 is odd, so the product is negative, i.e. -1
