To determine the sign of the product of \(-16.8\) and \(\frac{3}{7}\), we need to consider the signs of the numbers involved:

  • \(-16.8\) is negative.
  • \(\frac{3}{7}\) is positive.

When you multiply a negative number by a positive number, the product is always negative.

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