This pattern shows that positive times negative is negative.
Notice that each product is 1 less than the previous product.
What is -1 * 1?
5 * 1 = 5
4 * 1 = 4
3 * 1 = 3
2 * 1 = 2
1 * 1 = 1
0 * 1 = 0
-1 * 1 = ?
-2 * 1 = ?
-3 * 1 = ?

Answer 21

5 * 1 = 5
4 * 1 = 4
3 * 1 = 3
2 * 1 = 2
1 * 1 = 1
0 * 1 = 0
-1 * 1 = -1
-2 * 1 = -2
-3 * 1 = -3
The last three multiplications follow the pattern above them, and each product is 1 less than the product before.

Answer 22

Okay thanks! ;)

Answer 23

Now we know negative times positive is negative.
What about negative times negative?
Here is a new pattern for negative time negative.
5 * (-1) = -5
4 * (-1) = -4
3 * (-1) = -3
2 * (-1) = -2
1 * (-1) = -1
0 * (-1) = 0
-1 * (-1) = ?
-2 * (-1) = ?
-3 * (-1 ) = ?

What are the last three products above?
You see that by following the pattern, each product is 1 more than the product before, so the last three products are 1, 2, and 3.
That shows that -1 * (-1) = 1, etc., or negative times negative equals positive.
