(3)(2) = 6 (3)(1) = 3 (3)(0) = 0 (3)(-1) = -3 (3)(-2) = -6.. Let’s Look At This… (-3)(2) = -6 (-3)(1) = -3 (-3)(0) = 0 (-3)(-1) = +3 (-3)(-2) = +6.. (-3)(+2) = -6 (-3)(+1) = -3 (-3)(0) = 0 (-3)(-1) = +3 (-3)(-2) = +6.. What have you noticed???
for Multiplication (+)(+) = + (-)(+) = - ( +)(-) = - (-)(-) = + SYMBOLIC:
Multiplication on the number line: (+3)(+2) =. +6.
Multiplication on the number line: (+2)(-3) =. -6. OR
Multiplication on the number line: (-3)(+2) = or (-)(3)(2)= Note: Negative changes to opposite direction -6
Multiplication on the number line: (-3)(-2) = or (-)(-)(3)(2)=. +6. Note: Negative changes to opposite direction -6 Note: Negative changes to opposite direction +6
= How many moves of (2) will get you from 0 to Division on the number line:
= How many moves of (-2) will get you from 0 to Division on the number line:
Let’s Look at this pattern… What have you noticed??? (-8) (-2) = +4 (-6) (-2) = +3 (-4) (-2) = +2 (-2) (-2) = +1 (0) (-2) = 0 (+2) (-2) = -1 (+4) (-2) = -2 (+6) (-2) = -3 (+8) (-2) = -4.
SYMBOLIC: for Division (+) (+) = + (-) (-) = + ( +) (-) = - (-) (+) = -
AREA = Length X Width WIdthWIdth L e n g t h (+3)(+2) = What does this mean?? ADD: Three groups of +2 or 2+2+2= + 6 Product = factor x factor
(+4)(+3) = The product is ? ADD: Four groups of positive 3 +12
(+4)(- 3) = ADD: Four groups of negative three. - 12
(+3)(-2) = - 6
(- 5)(+ 2) = - 10 Add: two groups of -5
When COLOURS of the factors are in CONFLICT (Oppose) the product is ALWAYS WHITE ( negative) METHOD : 2 Remember there are ONLY two colours – White or Coloured
(- 3)( + 2) = - 6 Yes! Therefore, WHITE ! ARE product of the COLOURS in CONFLICT??? (Oppose)
(- 2)(- 3)= + 6 No! Therefore, Coloured ! ARE the product of the COLOURS in CONFLICT??? (Oppose)
(- 3)(-4) = + 12 No! Therefore, Coloured ! ARE the product of the COLOURS in CONFLICT??? (Oppose)
When the product of the COLOURS of the factors are in CONFLICT (Oppose) the product is ALWAYS WHITE ( negative) otherwise COLOURED!
1. (-4)(+2) = 2. (+6)(+3) = 3. (-5)(-3) = 4. (+6)(-2) = 5. (-3)(+8) =
+ 3 REMEMBER RULE!! Hint If the product is COLOURED the factors are the SAME! NOTE: It is the converse of Multiplication!
- 3 REMEMBER RULE!! Hint When the product is COLOURED the factors are the SAME colour!

METHOD # 2 : -3 x 2 = The negative means, to take out three groups of What are you left with on the mat?
-3 x -2 = The negative means, take out three groups of What are you left with on the mat?
+ 3 Add to the mat, two equal groups to give you + 6.
Add to the mat, two equal groups to give you
Remove 4 equal groups, leaving behind +8 on the mat. (Hint: Opposite sign of the dividend, tells you what to remove from the mat). - 2 Place 8 zero’s on the mat! Hint: (The dividend will tell you, how many zero’s).
