Using your calculator for these is much easier if you use the \"negative number\" button instead of the \"minus\" button.

\n

It is usually labelled as either   [ (-) ]   or   [  +/-  ].

\n

a)   $(\\var{a1}) \\times (\\var{a2})=\\var{a3}$

\n

b)   $(\\var{a1}) \\times (\\var{a1})=\\var{a1a}$   both numbers have the same sign so answer is positive

\n

c)   $(\\var{c1}) \\div (\\var{c2})=\\var{c3}$

\n

d)   This is the same as  c)  but written differently:

\n

\\[ \\frac{(\\var{c1})}{(\\var{c2})}=(\\var{c1}) \\div (\\var{c2})=\\var{c3}\\]

\n

      It could also be written as    $\\Large -\\frac{(\\var{c1a})}{(\\var{c2})} $  

\n

e)   $-(-)$  gives  $+$  so  $(\\var{e1}) - (\\var{e2})=\\var{e3}$

\n

f)   There are an even number of negatives so the answer will be a positive number.
