Sure, I can help you with that.

To solve the given expression:

(−3/5)×(5/16)×(7/12)÷(−3/16)×(−5/7)

Let's simplify it step by step using the rules for multiplying and dividing fractions.

Step 1: Multiply all the numerators together and all the denominators together:
(-3) × 5 × 7 × (-3) × (-5) = 3150 (numerator)
5 × 16 × 12 × 16 × 7 = 107520 (denominator)

Step 2: Reduce the result by canceling out common factors:
The greatest common factor (GCF) for 3150 and 107520 can be found by prime factorizing both numbers.

3150 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 7
107520 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 7

By canceling out common factors, we get:
3150 ÷ 107520 = 1 ÷ 32

So, the final simplified expression is:
(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7) = 1/32
thats wrong are u sure
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's reevaluate the expression:

(-3/5) × (5/16) × (7/12) ÷ (-3/16) × (-5/7)

First, we'll simplify multiplication and division from left to right:

(-3/5) × (5/16) = -15/80
(-15/80) × (7/12) = -105/960
(-105/960) ÷ (-3/16) = (-105/960) × (-16/3) = 560/960
(560/960) × (-5/7) = -2800/6720

Now, let's simplify the resulting fraction:

-2800/6720 can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 560. We get:

-2800/6720 = -5/12

Therefore, the simplified value of the expression is -5/12.

To solve the expression (-2) × (15) ÷ (23) × (-56) ÷ (34), we will simplify it step by step using the rules for multiplying and dividing.

Step 1: Perform the multiplication first.
(-2) × (15) = -30

The expression now becomes -30 ÷ (23) × (-56) ÷ (34).

Step 2: Perform the divisions from left to right.
-30 ÷ 23 ≈ -1.30435 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

The expression now becomes -1.30435 × (-56) ÷ (34).

Step 3: Continue with the remaining division.
-1.30435 × (-56) = 73.0436 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

The expression now becomes 73.0436 ÷ (34).

Step 4: Perform the final division.
73.0436 ÷ 34 ≈ 2.1507 (rounded to 4 decimal places)

Therefore, the value of the expression (-2) × (15) ÷ (23) × (-56) ÷ (34) is approximately 2.1507.
