To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.
Using the formula, -6/7*(-3/8) equals:
((-6) * (-3)) / ((7) * (8))
= (18) / (56)
Since 18 and 56 have a common factor of 2, you can simplify:
= 9/28.
Therefore, -6/7 * (-3/8) = 9/28.
-6/7 *(-3/8) it's on Khan Academy module 2!
