To multiply -5/9 by a number k, you simply multiply -5/9 by k.
Now, to express this multiplication as "no less than 5 times a number k," we can rewrite it as k multiplied by a fraction greater than or equal to 5.
Since 5 is a whole number, we want to find the smallest whole number that is greater than or equal to -5/9.
To do this, we divide -5 by 9, which equals approximately -0.5555.
So, the smallest whole number greater than or equal to -5/9 is -1.
Therefore, "-5/9 in no less than 5 times a number k" can be expressed as -1k or -k.
-5/9 > 5k
