\(\normalsize\color{black}{ 8 \times (-12)=4\times (-24)}\) \(\normalsize\color{black}{ 8 \times (-12)=4\times (-12)\times 2}\) \(\normalsize\color{black}{ 8 \times (-12)=2\times 4\times (-12) }\) \(\normalsize\color{black}{ 8 \times (-12)=8\times (-12) }\)

just switching things around :)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

for +24, instead of -24, you would get 8×(-12)=8×(12) → 12=-12

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
