Question

What is -8/15 of 21/12

Answer 1

Answer:

-14/15

Step-by-step explanation:

"of" means multiply, thus:

-8/15 * 21/12

-8 * 21 / 15 * 12

-2 * 7 / 15

-14/15

Answer 2

Answer:

-14/15

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you need to get rid of the negative sign. Don't worry you will add it back later!

So, you will do

-8/15×21/12

Once you cross cancel, you will have

-2/5x7/3

That would be equivalent to

-14/15

That's your answer!

Hope this helped :)
