thank you can you help with more?

pooja195 · Answer

its an odd number

anonymous · Answer

(something)(-something) = - something
now you have - something
(-something)(-something) = + something
now we have + something
(+something)(-something) = - something
but you can also see the odd number of negative signs so it'll be negative

$\huge\frac{ 4(-16) }{ 4 } = ?$
You're supposed to multiple -16(4)
Once you get that, divide your answer by 4.
