Solve the multiplication problem. (-5/8) x (2/3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]4 years ago
3 0

Lets get started!

In this case, it's quite simple.

<em>Multiply</em> both <em>numerators by each other </em>

The number are the top numbers of the fraction

-5 x 2 = -10

Now we <em>multiply the denominators,</em> the bottom numbers

8 x 3 = 24

Your final answer is -10/24

If you want to simplify (meaning to make smaller or easier to look at), <em>divide </em>the top and bottom numbers by 2

Your simplified answer is -5/12

Hope I helped :)

Use the Distributive Property to find the price of 9 CDs that cost $13.99 each.
Andreas93 [3]
To use the distributive property, we "distribute" a value on the outside of a set of parentheses to all of the values on the inside of the parentheses. For example...

6(3 + 9) = 6*3 + 6*9

For your problem, you only have one value 13.99, but we can split it apart to make it a little easier to work with (like with mental math).  We can say that 13.99 is the same as 10 + 3.99.  Now we can take it and multiply by 9 with the distributive property...

9(10 + 3.99) =
9*10 + 9*3.99 =
90 + 35.91 =

$125.91
