PEMDAS

The PEMDAS rule is an acronym representing the order of operations in math:

• Parentheses
• Exponents
• Multiplication and Division (from left to right)
• Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

According to the order of operations (PEMDAS), when multiplying, work from left to right:

Given expression:

(-2) · (7) · (5) · (-4)

Multiply -2 by 7:

⇒ (-14) · (5) · (-4)

Multiply -14 by 5:

⇒ (-70) · (-4)

Finally, multiply -70 by -4, remembering that if both numbers are negative, the answer is positive:

⇒ 280
