that wasnt an option
I apologize for the incorrect response.
The correct answer is -812.
However, if the question asks for the answer as a mixed number, we can rewrite -812 as -811 + (-1/7).
To multiply −116 by 7, multiply the absolute values of the numbers and then determine the sign of the answer. So, |-116| * |7| = 812. The sign of the answer is negative because one of the numbers being multiplied is negative. Therefore, the answer is -812. To write it as a mixed number, divide the absolute value of the answer (-812) by the number being multiplied by (7) to get the whole number part. The remainder will be the numerator, and the number being multiplied by will be the denominator. In this case, -812 divided by 7 equals -116 with a remainder of 0. So, the answer as a mixed number is -116 0/7.
To multiply −116 by 7 and write the answer as a mixed number, follow these steps:
Step 1: Compute the product of -116 and 7:
-116 × 7 = -812
Step 2: Divide the product by the denominator (7) to find the whole number part:
-812 ÷ 7 = -116 remainder 4
Step 3: Write the answer as a mixed number:
The whole number part is -116 and the fractional part is 4/7.
Therefore, the answer as a mixed number is -116 4/7.
