I'm shocked noone has left an answer yet...no math buffs out there? I'd answer it....but I'm not a math buff.
ReplyDeleteThe answer is 0, but then I consider myself a math buff. ;-)
ReplyDeletewhat about any negative number?
ReplyDeleteOf course, I never considered myself to be all that good a math buff... now the greek alphabet, I can work with those.
ReplyDeleteGood point Abe!
zero
ReplyDeleteAny number 1 or less because 1*3 = 1 and 1*2 =1
ReplyDelete0 *3=0 0*2=0, and negative numbers get smaller when multiplied
