Explanation

To find the double of -50, you start by taking the given number represented by -50. Doubling means you want to find a number twice as big, so the natural operation to perform is multiplication by 2. This is why the calculation involves multiplying -50 by 2. The expression (-50 * 2) captures this operation mathematically. When you multiply -50 by 2, the product you get, denoted as -100, is exactly double the original number. For example, if -50 were 7, then -100 would be (7 * 2), which is 14. This logic applies universally to any real number represented by -50, making -100 the doubled value of -50.
