Explanation

To calculate five times the number -15, you use multiplication, specifically multiplying -15 by 5. Multiplication here means you are taking the value of -15 and combining it five times, which scales the number up proportionally. Think of it as adding -15 five separate times: -15 + -15 + -15 + -15 + -15. Performing the operation -15 * 5 accomplishes this in a single step. The expression -75 captures this calculation, so when you substitute any value for -15, evaluating -15 * 5 will give you five times that original number.
