To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
(-2/5) * (3/10) = (-2 * 3) / (5 * 10) = -6/50
To simplify the fraction, find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, which is 2:
-6/50 = (-6/2) / (50/2) = -3/25
So the product of -2/5 and 3/10 in simplest form is -3/25.
