Question

What is 3 3/5 x (-8 1/3)?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is negative thirty

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is -450/15 = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

3 3/5 and -8 1/3 are numbers in mixed fractions. For getting the answer, the numbers must be converted into improper fractions with the formula =

Quotient * Divisor + Remainder = Dividend

Therefore;

=>   3 3/5 = 3 * 5 + 3 = 18/5

=>   -8 1/3 = -8 * 3 + 1 = -25/3

Now, we multiply the improper fractions.

=>   18/5 * (-25/3)

=>   -450/15

=>   -30 is the final answer
