Let's determine how we can the product of two numbers under the following conditions:

• 1. ,When the two numbers are positive.

The product of two numbers can be said to be the value you get when both numbers are multiplied together.

When two numbers are positive, and they are multiplied by each other, their product will also be a positive number.

Example:

3 x 5 = 15

2 x7 =14

• 2. When one is positive and one is negative?

When you multiply one negative and one positive number, the product will always be a negative number.

Example:

-2 x 6 = -12

-4 x 1 = -4

• 3,. When both are negative?

When you multiply two negative numbers, the product will always be a positive number.

Example:

-3 x -3 = 9

-9 x -2 = 18

• 4. ,When one is 0.

According to the zero product property, the product of any number and zero will be zero.

Example:

0 x 20 = 0

0 x 54 = 0

ANSWER:

a). The product will be positive

b.) The product will be negative

c). The product will be positive

d). The product will be zero
