Francesca 2
Francesca applied the steps below to find the product of (-1.2)(-9.4).
Step 1: (-1.2)(-9.4) = (-9.4)(-1.2)
Step 2: = (-9.4)(-1) + (-9.4)(-0.2)
Step 3: = (9.4) + (1.88)
Step 4: = 11.28
Which step shows where she applied the property that states multiplying two negative numbers will always yield a positive number?
