Multiplying positive numbers always comes out positive, no matter how many there are. So you can forget about the positive ones.
Every two negative numbers in a multiplication produce a positive.
Another way to say that is: If the number of negative ones is EVEN,
the answer is positive, and if it's ODD, the answer is negative.
That monster product of eight numbers in problem #12 will be negative,
because there are an odd amount of negative factors in it.

Answer:
The scale is 1:200
Step-by-step explanation:
On the plan we have the drawing as 6 cm
In real representation, we have the distance as 12 m
Firstly we have to convert to same unit
In this case, we use the cm for convenience
Mathematically, 100 cm is 1 m
Thus, 12 m
will be 12 * 100 = 1,200 cm
So, we have the ratio as;
6 cm : 1,200 cm
and that is 1:200 (since 6/1200 = 1/200 and in ratio form, we have that as 1:200)
