Answer:

When c and a are positive or both are negative

Step-by-step explanation:

negative times negative equals positive so if a was negative and c was negative -a*-c= ac

Of course positive times positive equals negative so if a and c were positive we could do

a*c= ac

Hope I could help !

Use the digits 1,3,4,and 7 to create two whole numbers whose product is estimated to be about 600

blagie [28]

34 x 17 (round the 2 numbers)
30 x 20
600

Also, 34 x 17 = 578, which rounds to 600

The answer is 34 and 17
