-2/7 * -1/5

1 answer

To multiply the fractions \(-\frac{2}{7}\) and \(-\frac{1}{5}\), you can follow these steps:

  1. Multiply the numerators: \(-2 \times -1 = 2\)
  2. Multiply the denominators: \(7 \times 5 = 35\)

Thus, the product of the two fractions is:

\[ \frac{2}{35} \]

So, \(-\frac{2}{7} \times -\frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{35}\).
