Question

- 6 * 1/3=?please type the equation and simplify if possible

Answer 1

We have to simplify this as a product of fractions. Notice that the 6 has a negative sign, therefore, the result will be negative. We have then:

$-6\cdot\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{6}{1}\cdot\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{6\cdot1}{1\cdot3}=-\frac{6}{3}=-2$

therefore, the simplified result is -2
