Question

$$(- \frac{ 3 }{ 5 } )( \frac{ 4 }{ 9 } )$$

Evaluate

$-\frac{4}{15}\approx -0.266666667$

Solution Steps

Multiply $-\frac{3}{5}$ times $\frac{4}{9}$ by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$\frac{-3\times 4}{5\times 9}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction $\frac{-3\times 4}{5\times 9}$.

$$\frac{-12}{45}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{-12}{45}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $3$.

$$-\frac{4}{15}$$

Factor

$-\frac{4}{15} = -0.26666666666666666$
