multiply -2/5 by 3/10
write answer in simplest form
To multiply -2/5 by 3/10, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.
(-2/5) * (3/10) = (-2 * 3) / (5 * 10) = -6/50
To simplify -6/50, we can factor out a common factor of 2 in the numerator and denominator to get:
-6/50 = (-3 * 2) / (25 * 2) = -3/25
Therefore, the answer in simplest form is -3/25.
multiply 4 by -5//8 write the answer as a mixed number in simplest form
To multiply 4 by -5/8, we can first convert 4 into a fraction with a denominator of 1:
4 = 4/1
Then, we can multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together:
(4/1) * (-5/8) = (4 * -5) / (1 * 8) = -20/8
Next, we can simplify the fraction -20/8 by factoring out a common factor of 4 in the numerator and denominator:
-20/8 = (-5 * 4) / (2 * 4) = -5/2
Finally, we can express -5/2 as a mixed number. To do this, we divide the numerator (-5) by the denominator (2) to get the whole number part, and the remainder becomes the numerator of the fraction part:
-5 divided by 2 equals -2 with a remainder of 1.
So, the mixed number in simplest form is -2 1/2.
multiply 6.5 by 0.3 write answer as a decimal
To multiply 6.5 by 0.3, we simply multiply the two numbers together:
6.5 * 0.3 = 1.95
Therefore, the answer as a decimal is 1.95.
multiply -19.3 by 6
To multiply -19.3 by 6, we multiply the two numbers together:
-19.3 * 6 = -115.8
Therefore, the product of -19.3 and 6 is -115.8.
multiply -2 1/2 by -1 3/5 write the answer a decimal
To multiply -2 1/2 by -1 3/5, we first need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.
-2 1/2 can be written as -5/2, and -1 3/5 can be written as -8/5.
Next, we multiply the two fractions together:
(-5/2) * (-8/5) = 40/10
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
40/10 = 4
Therefore, the product of -2 1/2 and -1 3/5 is 4.
Converting 4 to decimal form gives us the answer:
4 = 4.0
Therefore, the product as a decimal is 4.0.
To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators (top numbers) together and the denominators (bottom numbers) together. In this case, you have (-2/5) multiplied by (3/10).
(-2/5) * (3/10) = (-2*3) / (5*10) = (-6) / (50)
To simplify the fraction, find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator, and divide both the numerator and the denominator by this GCD. In this case, the GCD of -6 and 50 is 2.
(-6/50) รท 2 = (-6/50) * (1/2) = -3/25
So, (-2/5) multiplied by (3/10) equals -3/25, which is the simplest form of the fraction.
