Can anyone show me a good resource for practicing word problems for multiplying positive and negatives? It maybe will help me get a more solid understanding of *why*, say, a negative times a negative is a positive.
I get the process, but not sure I have a full grasp yet of the whys and wherefores. Any help is appreciated, including your own problems.

For an explanation of the rules, how about this lesson?
