Answer:
713/40 or as mixed fraction of 17 33/40 (see setps below)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
-(3 + 7/8) (-(4 + 3/5))
Hint: | Multiply all instances of -1 in -(3 + 7/8) (-(4 + 3/5)).
(-1)^2 = 1:
(4 + 3/5) (3 + 7/8)
Hint: | Put the fractions in 3 + 7/8 over a common denominator.
Put 3 + 7/8 over the common denominator 8. 3 + 7/8 = (8×3)/8 + 7/8:
(4 + 3/5) (8×3)/8 + 7/8
Hint: | Multiply 8 and 3 together.
8×3 = 24:
(4 + 3/5) (24/8 + 7/8)
Hint: | Add the fractions over a common denominator to a single fraction.
24/8 + 7/8 = (24 + 7)/8:
(4 + 3/5) (24 + 7)/8
Hint: | Evaluate 24 + 7 using long addition.

| 3 | 1:
(4 + 3/5)×31/8
Hint: | Put the fractions in 4 + 3/5 over a common denominator.
Put 4 + 3/5 over the common denominator 5. 4 + 3/5 = (5×4)/5 + 3/5:
31/8 (5×4)/5 + 3/5
Hint: | Multiply 5 and 4 together.
5×4 = 20:
((20/5 + 3/5)×31)/8
Hint: | Add the fractions over a common denominator to a single fraction.
20/5 + 3/5 = (20 + 3)/5:
31/8 (20 + 3)/5
Hint: | Evaluate 20 + 3.
20 + 3 = 23:
23/5×31/8
Hint: | Express 23/5×31/8 as a single fraction.
23/5×31/8 = (23×31)/(5×8):
(23×31)/(5×8)
Hint: | Multiply 5 and 8 together.
5×8 = 40:
(23×31)/40
Hint: | Multiply 23 and 31 together.

Answer: 713/40
________________________________________
Convert to a mixed number:
713/40
Hint: | Use long division to get a quotient and remainder.
Divide 713 by 40:
4 | 0 | 7 | 1 | 3
Hint: | How many times does 40 go into 71?
40 goes into 71 at most one time:
| | | 1 | |
4 | 0 | 7 | 1 | 3 |
| - | 4 | 0 | |
| | 3 | 1 | 3 |
Hint: | How many times does 40 go into 313?
40 goes into 313 at most 7 times:
| | | 1 | 7 |
4 | 0 | 7 | 1 | 3 |
| - | 4 | 0 | |
| | 3 | 1 | 3 |
| - | 2 | 8 | 0 |
| | | 3 | 3 |
Hint: | Summarize the results.
Read off the results. The quotient is the number at the top and the remainder is the number at the bottom:
| | | 1 | 7 | (quotient)
4 | 0 | 7 | 1 | 3 |
| - | 4 | 0 | |
| | 3 | 1 | 3 |
| - | 2 | 8 | 0 |
| | | 3 | 3 | (remainder)
Hint: | In the equivalent mixed fraction, the quotient becomes the whole number part, the remainder becomes the numerator part, and the divisor (denominator) remains the denominator.
The quotient of 713/40 is 17 with remainder 33, so:
