Answer 2

Answer:

The product of three negative integers and the product of two positive integers is a negative integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The product of even numbers of negative integers is a positive integer but the product of odd numbers of a negative integer is a negative integer.
• whereas, the product of any number of positive integers, is a positive integer.
• In the given statement, there are three negative integers and two positive integers.
• The product of three negative integers will be a negative integer.
• The product of two positive integers will be a positive integer.
• The product of the resultants, that is, the product of a negative integer and a positive integer will be a negative integer.
• Therefore, the product of three negative integers and the product of two positive integers is a negative integer.
