\((–43)\times(–99)+43\) is equal to
4300
–4300
4257
–4214
Step 1: Understand the signs
A negative × a negative = a positive.
((-43) imes(-99) = +(43 imes 99))
Step 2: Multiply 43 by 99 (break 43 into 40 and 3)
(43 imes 99 = (40+3) imes 99)
(= 40 imes 99 ;+; 3 imes 99)
(= 3960 ;+; 297)
(= 4257)
Step 3: Now add the extra +43
(( -43) imes( -99) + 43 = 4257 + 43)
(= 4300)
Answer: 4300 ⇒ option (a)
