Given, a = -65 and b = 8.

We have to find multiplication of them.

a is negative and b is positive. When we multiply them, we know that the multiplication of positive and negative is negative. That means [tex] (+)(-) = - [/tex].

So [tex] (a)(b) = (-65)(8) [/tex]

= [tex] (-)(+)(65)(8) [/tex] = [tex] - (65)(8) [/tex] = [tex] -520 [/tex]

So we have got the required product.

Multiplication of a and b = -520.

The correct option is option C.
