Well, if -3 x 4 x 3 x 4 = -144 -144 x -2 = 72

OpenStudy (peterg2001):

first, second,third or forth

OpenStudy (superflytyguy):

An odd number of factors were negative. Even if I had 3 negatives, the answer would still be -144

OpenStudy (superflytyguy):

Sorry -144 / -2 = 72 Not multiplied! Sorry for any confusion!
