O Luke. -32 < 36
O Sofia, 32 - 36

Answer 1

Luke, -32 < 36

Explanation:

The two cards drawn by Sofia has values of -8 and 4 respectively. The product of her cards = -8 × 4 = -32. (Negative × positive = (negative)

The two cards drawn by Luke has values of -6 and -6 respectively. The product of his cards = -6 × -6 = 36 (negative × negative = positive).

36 greater than -32.

Luke had the largest product because -32 < 36.
