What will the sign of the product , if we multiplied together 179 negative and 8 positive integer
Answers
Answer:
The sign will be negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sign will be negative because negative numbers are odd in number and we know that when we multiply any negative number that is odd in number with any positive number in even in number then the outcome will be negative.
For your better understanding let take a look on some observations;
-1 * -3 * -5 * 5 * 8 * 6 = -3600
-2 * -6 * -1 * -3 * -6 * 2 = -432
Here, in these observations you can see that the negative number are odd in number and hence their outcome are also negative.It doesn't matter how many positive number are there, the existence of negative sign could only be possible because of negative number present in odd in number.
That's all.
