Question

What is the product of −314 and −112 ?

Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.

Answer 1

-314 -(112) (Which is normally how you put it)

-314 -(112)= -314 * -112

=

35168

Answer 2

`4(7)/(8)`

Explanation:

We are given that two numbers

`-3(1)/(4) and -1(1)/(2)`

We have to find the product of given numbers .

`-3(1)/(4)=-(13)/(4)`

`-1(1)/(2)=-(3)/(2)`

Product of given numbers is given by

`(-13)/(4)* (-3)/(2)=(39)/(8)`

When two negative numbers are multiplied then the product becomes positive.

`-3(1)/(4) * (-1(1)/(2))=4(7)/(8)`

Hence,
`-3(1)/(4) * (-1(1)/(2))=4(7)/(8)`
