3/8(−2/3)

25 answers

To solve the expression 3/8 * (-2/3), we need to multiply the numerators and denominators separately.

First, let's multiply the numerators: 3 * -2 = -6

Then, let's multiply the denominators: 8 * 3 = 24

Putting these values together, we have: -6/24

However, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6.

-6 divided by 6 equals -1, and 24 divided by 6 equals 4.

Therefore, the simplified expression is: -1/4.

To solve the expression -2 1/4 * (-5 2/3), we can first convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

-2 1/4 can be written as -9/4, since -2 multiplied by 4 is -8, and adding 1 gives us -9 over 4.

Similarly, -5 2/3 can be written as -17/3. -5 multiplied by 3 is -15, and adding 2 gives us -17 over 3.

Next, we can multiply the numerators and denominators separately.

(-9/4) * (-17/3) = (9 * 17) / (4 * 3) = 153/12.

Now, we can simplify this fraction. The greatest common divisor of 153 and 12 is 3.

Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3, we get:

153 divided by 3 equals 51, and 12 divided by 3 equals 4.

Therefore, the simplified expression is 51/4.

To solve the expression -2 1/4 * (-5 2/3), we can convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

-2 1/4 can be written as -9/4, since -2 multiplied by 4 is -8, and adding 1 gives us -9 over 4.

Similarly, -5 2/3 can be written as -17/3. -5 multiplied by 3 is -15, and adding 2 gives us -17 over 3.

Next, we can multiply the numerators and denominators separately.

(-9/4) * (-17/3) = (9 * 17) / (4 * 3) = 153/12.

Now, we can simplify this fraction. The greatest common divisor of 153 and 12 is 3.

Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3, we get:

153 divided by 3 equals 51, and 12 divided by 3 equals 4.

Therefore, the simplified fraction is 51/4.

To express the answer as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (51) by the denominator (4). The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder is the numerator of the fraction.

51 divided by 4 equals 12 with a remainder of 3.

So, the simplified answer as a mixed number is 12 3/4.

To solve the expression 3 1/2 * (-5), we first convert the mixed number 3 1/2 to an improper fraction.

3 1/2 can be written as 7/2, since 3 multiplied by 2 is 6, and adding 1 gives us 7 over 2.

Next, we multiply the numerator and denominator of 7/2 by -5:

(7/2) * (-5) = (7 * -5) / 2 = -35/2.

To simplify this fraction, we divide both the numerator (-35) and the denominator (2) by their greatest common divisor, which is 1.

Dividing -35 by 1 gives us -35, and dividing 2 by 1 gives us 2.

Therefore, the simplified fraction is -35/2.

To express the answer as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (-35) by the denominator (2). The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder is the numerator of the fraction.

-35 divided by 2 equals -17 with a remainder of 1.

So, the simplified answer as a mixed number is -17 1/2.

To find the quotient of -5/6 divided by -3/2, we can multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.

The reciprocal of -3/2 is -2/3. To find the reciprocal, we simply swap the numerator and denominator.

So, the expression becomes: -5/6 * -2/3.

Next, we multiply the numerators and denominators separately.

(-5 * -2) / (6 * 3) = 10/18.

To simplify this fraction, we can find the greatest common divisor of 10 and 18, which is 2.

Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2, we get:

10 divided by 2 equals 5, and 18 divided by 2 equals 9.

Therefore, the simplified quotient is 5/9.

To find the quotient of -4 2/3 divided by 3 1/5, we first convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

-4 2/3 can be written as -14/3, since -4 multiplied by 3 is -12, and adding 2 gives us -14 over 3.

Similarly, 3 1/5 can be written as 16/5. 3 multiplied by 5 is 15, and adding 1 gives us 16 over 5.

Next, we divide the numerator (-14) by the numerator (16), and the denominator (3) by the denominator (5):

(-14/3) / (16/5) = (-14/3) * (5/16) = (-14 * 5) / (3 * 16) = -70/48.

To simplify this fraction, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

Dividing -70 by 2 gives us -35, and dividing 48 by 2 gives us 24.

Therefore, the simplified fraction is -35/24.

To express the answer as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (-35) by the denominator (24). The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder is the numerator of the fraction.

-35 divided by 24 equals -1 with a remainder of 11.

So, the simplified answer as a mixed number is -1 11/24.

To find the quotient when you divide -10/11 by -2/5, you can multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor:

-10/11 ÷ -2/5 = -10/11 * -5/2

Next, multiply the numerators and denominators separately:

(-10 * -5) / (11 * 2) = 50/22

To simplify this fraction, find the greatest common divisor of 50 and 22, which is 2.

Dividing both the numerator and the demoninator by 2, we get:

50/22 = 25/11

Therefore, the quotient is 25/11.

To find the quotient when you divide -3/4 by 3/8, you can multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor:

(-3/4) ÷ (3/8) = -3/4 * 8/3

Next, multiply the numerators and denominators separately:

(-3 * 8) / (4 * 3) = -24/12

To simplify this fraction, find the greatest common divisor of 24 and 12, which is 12.

Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 12, we get:

-24/12 = -2

Therefore, the quotient is -2.
