Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve:
(−3)÷(34)×(27)×(−516)÷(57)

(−3)÷(34)×(27)×(−516)÷(57)
(1 point)
To solve this expression, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) and apply the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing.
First, let's evaluate the division operations:
(-3) ÷ (34) = -3/34
(-516) ÷ (57) = -516/57
Next, let's proceed with the multiplication:
((-3/34) × (27) × (-516/57))
To simplify the multiplication, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
((-3 × 27 × -516) / (34 × 57))
-3 × 27 × -516 = 41,724
34 × 57 = 1,938
Therefore, the final expression is:
41,724 / 1,938 = 21.53 (rounded to two decimal places).
