Answer:The result is -$300

Explanation:

First, you have 100 shares of a certain stock. Each one changes Tamera´s investment in every financial move.

If you multiplicate the 100 shares for the drops that each share produce (-$3), then you have the total change in Tamera´s investment.

The multiplication expression to find the change its:

100 × (-$3) = -$300

$300 negative its the total of the drops of her investment.
