Multiplication of Two Negative Integers

Multiplication (Two Positive Integers) Multiplication (Two Negative Integers) Multipication (Positive and Negative Integer) Multiplication of Three or more negative integers

Explanation
In a situation, where two negative integers are given for multiplication, you multiply the given integers and put a positive sign(+) on the left side of obtained number.
In other words, whenever two negative integers are multiplied, we always get a positive integer.

Note 1 = Method of multiplication of two positive integers and two negative integers is similar.

Note 2 = A positive (+)sign on the left side of the resultant number is normally ignored.

Following examples further explain How to multiply two negative integers :-

Example 1 = Find the product of two negative integers (-5) and (-3)
Answer = The proceed is as :-
Multiply the given integers (-5) & (-3)and we get;
= (-5) x (-3) = 15

Example 2 = Find the product of two negative integers (-26) x (-10)
Answer = The proceed is as :-
Multiply the given integers (-26) & (-10)and we get;
= (-26) x (-10) = 260

Example 3 = Solve (-4) x (-100)
Answer = The proceed is as :-
Multiply the given integers (-4) & (-100)and we get;
= (-4) x (-100) = 400

Example 4 = Solve (-13) x (-7)
Answer = The proceed is as :-
Multiply the given integers (-13) & (-7)and we get;
= (-13) x (-7)= 91
