It already has been answered. But i can show the solution
6.) (5)(3)(-8)
= (5)(3) is 5 x 3. Which is 15.
= (15)(-8) is 15 x -8, it equals to -120.
15 x 8 is 120 but since the two numbers have different signs ( + [positive] , - [negative]) the product will be negative. The explanation is easy, if you multiply two numbers with different signs, the product is always negative.
(Just thesolution):
6. (5)(3)(-8)
=(15)(-8)
= -120
7.) (-2)(-10)(-9)(8)
= (-2)(-10) is -2 x -10. That equals to 20. Whenever you multiply two numbers with like / similar signs, the product will be positive.
= (20)(-9) is 20 x -9 which is -180.
= (-180)(8) is -180 x 8, it equals to-
= -1,440. It may seem like the solution looks different, in just did a different approach.
(Just the solution):
7. (-2)(-10)(-9)(8)
= (20)(-9)
= (-180)(8)
= -1,440
Or
7. (-2)(-10)(-9)(8)
= (20)(-72)
= -1,440
8.) (-6)(3)(-4)
= (-6)(3) is -6 x 3 which is -18.
= (-18)(-4) is -18 x -4 which is-
= 72
(Just thesolution):
8. (-6)(3)(-4)
= (-18)(-4)
= 72
9.) (-16)(0)(-4)(-3)(10)
= (-16)(0) is -16 x 0. We know that everything we multiply to zero equals to zero.
= (0)(-4) is 0 x -4, the answer is 0.
= (0)(-3) is 0 x -3, the product is 0.
= (0)(10) is 0 x 10, just like the previous solutions the answer is-
= 0
(Just the solution):
9. (-16) (0) (-4) (-3) (10)
= (-16)(0)
= (0)(-4)
= (0)(-3)
= (0)(-10)
= 0
Or
9. (-16) (0) (-4) (-3) (10)
= (0) (12) (10)
=(0) (10)
=0
Really hope you understand this solution i added the fast solutions if you do not wish to read the long one. If you don't understand how the fast solution worked, it's in the long solution. Happy learning <3
