Understand the problem

Solve the following problem:

549:1410= -5\cdot-49:14\cdot-10=

2

Step-by-step solution

Let's write the exercise in the following way:

5×4914×10= \frac{-5\times-49}{14}\times-10=

Note that in the numerator of the fraction we are multiplying two negative numbers, therefore the result must be a positive number:

5×4914×10= \frac{5\times49}{14}\times-10=

Break down 49 and 14 into multiplication exercises:

5×7×77×2×10= \frac{5\times7\times7}{7\times2}\times-10=

Reduce the 7 in the numerator and denominator of the fraction and proceed to break down the 10 into a multiplication exercise:

5×72×5×2= \frac{5\times7}{2}\times-5\times2=

Reduce the 2 and note that we are multiplying a positive number by a negative number, therefore the result must be negative:

5×7×5= -5\times7\times5=

Let's solve the exercise from left to right.

Note that first we are multiplying a negative number by a positive number, therefore the result must be a negative number:

5×7=35 -5\times7=-35

We obtain the following:

35×5= -35\times5=

Note that we are multiplying a negative number by a positive number, therefore the result must be a negative number:

175 -175
