No calculations are needed here. We'll just use some number sense.
Quantity A: (-5423)(-5424)(-5425)(-5426)(-5427)
Quantity B: (-6231)(-6232)(-6233)(-6234)
Think of these products as follows:
Quantity A: (NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)
Quantity B: (NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE)
Since (NEGATIVE)(NEGATIVE) = POSITIVE, we get:
Quantity A: some NEGATIVE product
Quantity B: some POSITIVE product
Answer: B
