. However, if the original inequality is multiplied by a negative number like –3, the resulting inequality is –12 > –9, which is false. To make the resulting inequality true, you have to reverse the inequality sign. That gives –12 < –9, which is true. Multiplication Property of Inequalities — Negative Numbers Given rea...
