Answer 1

To determine the sign of the product \(-16.8 \times \frac{3}{7}\), we need to analyze the signs of the numbers involved.

1. \(-16.8\) is negative.
2. \(\frac{3}{7}\) is positive because both the numerator and the denominator are positive.

When the product of a negative number and a positive number is calculated, the result is negative.

Therefore, the sign of the product \(-16.8 \times \frac{3}{7}\) is negative.
