The product of two integers is between -20 and -25. What are the integers? Give 5 answers.
-3*7 = -21
-3*8 = -24
-2*11 = -22
and so on
you can also use -7*3 = -21
and so on
-1*23 and 1 * -23
There are oodles of possibilities
To find the integers whose product is between -20 and -25, we need to list all possible pairs of integers whose product falls within this range. Let's go step by step:
1. Begin by considering the possible factors of -20 and -25:
- Factors of -20: -1, -2, -4, -5, -10, 20
- Factors of -25: -1, -5, 25
2. Since the target range is between -20 and -25, we need to combine factors that will give us a product within this range. Let's look for pairs that multiply to get a value between -20 and -25:
a) -1 × 20 = -20
b) -2 × 10 = -20
c) -4 × 5 = -20
d) -1 × 25 = -25
e) -5 × 5 = -25
So, based on these calculations, the pairs of integers that satisfy the given conditions are:
a) -1 and 20
b) -2 and 10
c) -4 and 5
d) -1 and 25
e) -5 and 5
These are the five possible pairs of integers such that their product is between -20 and -25.
