Question Multiply $(-9) \times 7$ and enter the answer.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are multiplying two integers: -9 and 7.
2. The multiplication of two integers follows the rule that the product of a negative and a positive integer is a negative integer.

STEP 2

To multiply the two integers, we multiply their absolute values and then apply the sign rule.
$(-9) \times 7 = -(9 \times 7)$

STEP 3

Now, calculate the product of the absolute values.
$9 \times 7 = 63$

STEP 4

Apply the negative sign to the product.
$-(9 \times 7) = -63$
The answer is $-63$ .
