I’m missing the actual problem — the expression didn’t come through clearly. Could you re-type it (you can use plain text like (-a/b) × (-c/d) or upload a clearer image)?
While you re-send, here are quick rules so we can solve it fast once I have the numbers:
- Sign: (−) × (−) = +, so the product of two negative numbers is positive.
- Multiply fractions: (a/b) × (c/d) = (a·c)/(b·d).
- Simplify: cancel common factors between any numerator and any denominator before or after multiplying, then reduce to lowest terms.
Example:
(-3/4) × (-5/6)
= (+) (3·5)/(4·6) = 15/24 = 5/8 after dividing numerator and denominator by 3.
Send the exact expression and I’ll pick the correct choice and show the steps.
