- Use a second bead line with negative direction to show repeated addition of the positive number in the negative direction
- Count the total movement in the negative direction
- Example: For -4 × 3, show adding 3 four times in the negative direction, yielding -12
Negative × Negative
- Use one bead line to represent the negative multiplier
