"Negative 7 times positive 3 equal 8 times negative 3"
=======================================================
Let's turn the words into numbers.
-7%2A3=8%2A%28-3%29
Multiply -7 and 3 to get -21.
Multiply 8 and -3 to get -24.
We get: -21+=+-24
These two numbers are NOT equal. If you are trying to find whether or not they are equal, the answer will be, no, they are not.
