Given:

(-80)(-20)

Simplify.

Solution:
We must take note that whenever two values with different signs are either introduced, multiplied, or divided to each other the sign will become negative, hence if the signs are similar, then the sign will be positive. In our case we have two negative numbers multiplied, therefore we will have a positive answer:

= (-80)(-20)

= 1600

Final answer:

= 1600
