Question

Multiply.

Express your answer in lowest terms.

-2/9*-3/14

Answer 1

\[-\frac{ 2 }{ 9 }*(\frac{ -3 }{ 14 })\] this is what you mean right?

Answer 2

if so when we multiply fractions we multiply across the numerator and denominator

Answer 3

yeah that's what i mean

Answer 4

\[(-1*-1)(\frac{ 2*3 }{ 14*9 })= \frac{ 6 }{ 126 }\]

of course we can simplify this by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 6

\[\frac{ 6/6 }{ 126/6 } = \frac{ 1 }{ 21 }\]

Answer 5
