To multiply rational numbers, we first multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together.
So, multiplying -7/9 by 162:
(-7/9) * 162 = (-7 * 162) / (9) = -1134/9
However, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 9:
-1134/9 = -126/1
Therefore, -7/9 times 162 is equal to -126/1 or simply -126.
