Multiplying Integers and Their Signs

This video tutorial covers multiplication involving three or more integers, focusing on the rules for multiplying integers with different and same signs. It introduces a shortcut for determining the sign of the product based on the number of negative integers involved. Two examples are provided: one with an odd number of negatives resulting in a negative product, and another with an even number of negatives resulting in a positive product. The tutorial concludes with tips on using the shortcut to save time.

What is the result when multiplying two integers with different signs?

• The product is positive.

• The product is negative.

• The product is zero.

• The product is undefined.
