### A good answer might be:

    negu $v2,$s3  ==  sub  $v2,$0,$s3

# Multiplication

The `mult` and the `multu` instructions (which you have seen before) put the result into MIPS registers hi and lo. The results may be moved out of these registers using `mfhi` and `mflo`.

The three operand pseudoinstruction `mul d,s,t` uses those basic instructions. It is used when the product of registers $s and $t is a value that fits into the 32 bits of lo.

Finish the translation:

    mul $v2,$s3,$t0  ==  multu  ____, ____
                         mflo   ____
