Multiplication Property of Inequality Multiplying each side of an inequality by a positive number produces an equivalent inequality. Multiplying each side of an inequality by a positive number produces an equivalent inequality. Multiplying each side of an inequality by a negative number and reversing the direction of the inequality symbol produces an equivalent inequality. Multiplying each side of an inequality by a negative number and reversing the direction of the inequality symbol produces an equivalent inequality.
