A positive number multiplied or divided by a negative number is always
negative or positive

Answer 1

It is always negative. For example, -1 times 2 is -2

Answer 2

Negative

Explanation:

Think about it this way, you cannot do something positive and then do something negative and it still be positive. You cannot do something negative and then do something positive for it to be positive. But you can do something positive and do something else positive for it to remain positive the same with negative. Therefore the answer is "negative."

Rules:

Positive ÷ Negative = Negative

Positive × Positive = Positive

Negative ÷ Negative = Positive
