this is it step by step

Answer 4

its confusing looking at it like that

Answer 5

@mathwiz916 Please come to this thread and explain your work. We cannot understand it. Thanks.

Answer 6

probably becuause he/she simply copied and pasted it from somewhere
as opposed to actually do it
and the paste came out out of whack

Answer 7

yes i do agree with them

Answer 8

ahemm \(\bf \cfrac{3}{4}\left( -\cfrac{8}{25} \right)\left( -\cfrac{5}{12} \right)\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\left( \cfrac{-8}{25} \right)\left( \cfrac{-5}{12} \right)
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{3\cdot (-8)\cdot (-5)}{2\cdot 25\cdot 12}\implies
\cfrac{\cancel{3}\cdot (-2\cdot 2\cdot \cancel{2})\cdot (-1\cdot \cancel{5})}{\cancel{2}\cdot (\cancel{5}\cdot 5)\cdot (\cancel{3}\cdot 4)}\)

Answer 9

missed one there... sec

Answer 10

\(\bf \cfrac{3}{4}\left( -\cfrac{8}{25} \right)\left( -\cfrac{5}{12} \right)\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\left( \cfrac{-8}{25} \right)\left( \cfrac{-5}{12} \right)
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{3\cdot (-8)\cdot (-5)}{2\cdot 25\cdot 12}\implies
\cfrac{\cancel{3}\cdot (- 2\cdot \cancel{2}\cdot \cancel{2})\cdot (-1\cdot \cancel{5})}{\cancel{2}\cdot (\cancel{5}\cdot 5)\cdot (\cancel{3}\cdot \cancel{2}\cdot \cancel{2})}\)

Answer 11

notice
5* 5 = 25
2*2*2= 8
2*2 = 4

Answer 12

and... ahemm 3*4 or 3*2*2 = 12

Answer 13

it should come out as

Answer 14

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 10}\]

Answer 15

as the answer

Answer 16

hmmm

Answer 17

well.... I missed one again :( at the botom, a 2... lemme do the whole thing

Answer 18

\(\bf \cfrac{3}{4}\left( -\cfrac{8}{25} \right)\left( -\cfrac{5}{12} \right)\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\left( \cfrac{-8}{25} \right)\left( \cfrac{-5}{12} \right)
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{3\cdot (-8)\cdot (-5)}{2\cdot 25\cdot 12}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot (-2\cdot 2\cdot 2)\cdot ( 5)}{2\cdot (5\cdot 5)\cdot (3\cdot 4)}
\\ \quad \\

\cfrac{\cancel{3}\cdot (-1\cdot \cancel{2}\cdot \cancel{2}\cdot \cancel{2})\cdot (-1\cdot \cancel{5})}{\cancel{2}\cdot (\cancel{5}\cdot 5)\cdot (\cancel{3}\cdot \cancel{2}\cdot \cancel{2})}\implies \cfrac{-1\cdot -1}{5}
\implies \cfrac{1}{5}\)

Answer 19

\[\left(\frac{\color{orange}3}{\color{blue}{4}}\right)\left(\frac{\color{blue}{-8}}{\color{red}{25}}\right)\left(\frac{\color{red}{-5}}{\color{orange}{12}}\right)\] \[\left(\frac{1\cancel{\color{orange}3}}{1\cancel{\color{blue}{4}}}\right)\left(\frac{-2\cancel{\color{blue}{-8}}}{-5\cancel{\color{red}{25}}}\right)\left(\frac{1\cancel{\color{red}{-5}}}{4\cancel{\color{orange}{12}}}\right)\] \[=\frac{-2}{-20} \] \[=\frac{1}{10}\]
