Question 762661
One multiplied by any number is equal to that number.
For example:
{{{1*1 = 1}}}
{{{1*4 = 4}}}
{{{1*32 = 32}}}
{{{1*A = A}}}
---------------
When a negative number is multiplied by another negative number, the negative signs cancel out and make the result positive.
Examples:
{{{-2*-4 = 8}}}
{{{-3*-2 = 6}}}
{{{-1*-1 = 1}}}
