Answer: [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] × [tex](-\frac{3}{6} )[/tex]= [tex]-\frac{3}{16} =- 0.1875[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] × [tex](-\frac{3}{6} )[/tex]
Reduce the fraction to 3/6 lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] × [tex](-\frac{1}{2} )[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3(-1)}{8x2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{-3}{16}[/tex]
rewritten as − 3/16 by extracting the negative sign
[tex]- \frac{3}{16}[/tex]
