Question

Find the product. Simplify if possible. −4/7×−3/4

Answer 1

Okay so this is a multiplication problem, so we need to multiply the numerators and denominators of the fractions to get the product.

$\frac{-4}{7}$ × $\frac{-3}{4}$ = $\frac{12}{28}$

The fraction 12/28 is not in lowest terms, so we need to reduce it. List the factors of the numerator and denominator:

Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Factors of 28: 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28

4 is the largest factor of both 12 and 28, so we need to divide both the numerator and denominator by 4.

Numerator: 12 ÷ 4 = 3

Denominator: 28 ÷ 4 = 7

Write the new fraction:

$\frac{3}{7}$
