Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

     Multiply: -71 * -101=

    Explanation
    When multiplying two negative numbers, the result is always positive. In this case, when we multiply -71 and -101, we get a positive result of 7171.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    -120*2=

    Explanation
    The given expression, -120*2, represents the multiplication of -120 by 2. When multiplying a negative number by a positive number, the result is always negative. Therefore, -120 multiplied by 2 equals -240.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    22*-3=

    Explanation
    When multiplying a positive number by a negative number, the product will be negative. In this case, 22 is being multiplied by -3, so the result will be negative. The product of 22 and -3 is -66.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    -66*-40=

  • 5. 

    Find the value of n. -22*n = -44

    Explanation
    To find the value of n, we need to solve the equation -22*n = -44. To isolate n, we divide both sides of the equation by -22. This gives us n = -44/-22, which simplifies to n = 2. Therefore, the value of n is 2.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    81/n = -9

  • 7. 

    n*12 =-144

    Explanation
    The equation n*12 = -144 can be solved by dividing both sides of the equation by 12. This will give us the value of n. When we divide -144 by 12, we get -12. Therefore, the value of n that satisfies the equation is -12.

    Tru and False. When you multipy two negatives the answer will be negative.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    When you multiply two negatives, the answer will be positive.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    When you divide a positive times a negative the answer will be negative.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When you divide a positive number by a negative number, the result will be negative. This is because division is essentially the same as multiplying by the reciprocal, and when you multiply a positive number by a negative number, the result is always negative. Therefore, the answer to the question is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Divide -121/11=

    Correct Answer
    -11
    Explanation
    The given equation -121 divided by 11 equals -11. When dividing a negative number by a positive number, the result is always negative. Therefore, -121 divided by 11 is -11.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    -21/-3=

    Correct Answer
    7
    Explanation
    When dividing a negative number by a negative number, the result is positive. In this case, -21 divided by -3 equals 7.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    42/-6 =

    Correct Answer
    -7
    Explanation
    When we divide 42 by -6, we are essentially asking how many times -6 can be subtracted from 42. Since -6 can be subtracted 7 times from 42 (7 x -6 = -42), the answer is -7.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    Solve the problems 5/3*-6/2

    Correct Answer
    -30/6
    -5
    Explanation
    The given expression involves the division and multiplication of fractions. To solve it, we first multiply 5/3 by -6/2, which gives us -30/6. This fraction can be simplified to -5 when we divide both the numerator and denominator by 6. Therefore, the correct answer is -30/6, -5.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    -5/2 / -4/6=

    Correct Answer
    20/12
    5/3
    Explanation
    The given expression is a division of two fractions. To divide fractions, we need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, the reciprocal of -4/6 is -6/4 or -3/2. Therefore, -5/2 divided by -4/6 is equal to -5/2 multiplied by -3/2, which simplifies to 15/4 or 3 3/4. However, none of the given answer options match this result. Therefore, the correct answer is not available.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    -6/11 * 5/8 =

    Correct Answer
    -30/88
    -15/44
    Explanation
    The given expression is a multiplication of two fractions. To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators and denominators separately. In this case, multiplying -6/11 and 5/8 gives us (-6 * 5) / (11 * 8) = -30/88. Therefore, the correct answer is -30/88.
