Question

Find the product of the following.

$\left(-5\right)$ by $2$

Answer 1

The product of a positive integer and a negative integer is always a negative integer.

So we get,

$$\begin{gathered} =\left(-5\right)\times \left(2\right) \\ =-10 \end{gathered}$$

Thus, $\left(-5\right)\times \left(2\right)=-10$
