-6÷3=-2
Yes, that's correct. Since the product of the smaller number (-2) and 3 is -6, we can solve for the smaller number by dividing -6 by 3:
-6 ÷ 3 = -2
So the smaller number is -2.
To find the larger number, we know that the sum of the two numbers is 12. So we can subtract the smaller number (-2) from 12 to get:
12 - (-2) = 12 + 2 = 14
So the two numbers are -2 and 14.
-6 ÷ 3 = -2
So the smaller number is -2.
