Multiply Integers Game
 
The best way to get good at multiplying integers is to do it often. This Multiply Integers Game is an interactive and engaging web-based application designed to help users practice and improve their integer skills through mental math.
 
There are rules that you can use when multiplying integers: If the signs are the same, multiply the absolute values and keep the original sign. If the signs are different, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value and use the sign of the integer with the larger absolute value. Scroll down the page if you need a more detailed explanation.
 
The user can set the range for the integers to adjust the difficulty level. This Multiply Integers Game has an option for a 60-second timer, encouraging players to solve the problems quickly and efficiently.

Strategies for Multiplying Integers
Learning to multiply integers in your head is a powerful skill that can make math much faster and more intuitive. Instead of counting on your fingers, you’ll learn to see the relationships between numbers to quickly find the answer.
 
Multiplying Integers using Rules
Rule 1: Same Sign, Positive Product
When you multiply two numbers with the same sign (either both are positive or both are negative), the result will always be positive.
Two Positives: A positive number multiplied by a positive number equals a positive number.
Example: 5×3=15
Two Negatives: A negative number multiplied by a negative number equals a positive number.
Example: (−4)×(−2)=8
 
Rule 2: Different Signs, Negative Product
When you multiply two numbers with different signs (one is positive and the other is negative), the result will always be negative.
Multiply the numbers as you normally would, then just place a negative sign in front of the answer.
Example 1: 7×(−3)=−21
First, multiply 7×3=21.
Since the signs are different, the answer is negative.
Example 2: (−6)×5=−30
First, multiply 6×5=30.
Since the signs are different, the answer is negative.
