Roger is trying to understand why the product of a positive number and a negative number should be negative. How would you explain to Roger why two times -4 over five is a negative number?

I think Roger didn’t put the prentice around the -4 Maybe he did in this way -4/5 x2, but what he need to do is (-4/5) x 2
