Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
- 3/7 × - 1 2/3 =
[a b/c = ac + b / c]
-3/7 × -5/3 [convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction in order to multiply the numerator and denominator directly]
=
(-)(-)15/21 =
[2 negatives make a positive]
15/21 =
5/7
a/b × c/d = a × c/b × d = ac/bd
[reduce until the denominator or numerator is prime (only divisible by 1 and itself)]
