Negative two times six is equal to
what.
To answer this problem, we begin by
simply calculating two times six. That’s two lots of six or six lots
of two. We know from our times tables that
two times six is equal to 12. We also know that the product of a
negative number and a positive number — that’s a negative times a positive — is a
negative number. That means negative two times six
must be negative. And so, the answer is negative
12.
