Solving $(-\frac{3}{5})(17\frac{5}{8})$ we get $-10\frac{23}{40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve: $(-\frac{3}{5})(17\frac{5}{8})$

We need to multiply the two terms.

Solving:

$(-\frac{3}{5})(17\frac{5}{8})$

Converting\,\,mixed\,\,fraction\,\,into\,\,improper\,\,fraction:

$(-\frac{3}{5})(\frac{141}{8})$

Now multiplying numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

$-\frac{423}{40} \\-10\frac{23}{40}$

So, Solving $(-\frac{3}{5})(17\frac{5}{8})$ we get $-10\frac{23}{40}$
