Step-by-step explanation:
With the mixed, start with the whole numbers
-6 * 7 = -42
Then do the fractions
[tex]-\frac{2}{9} *\frac{3}{6}[/tex]
simplify
[tex]-\frac{2}{9} *\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{18}[/tex]
simplify : [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
and you end up with: [tex]-42\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
With the improper
[tex]\frac{-56}{9} *\frac{45}{6}[/tex]
Start by simplifying the fraction down
[tex]\frac{-28}{1} *\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]-\frac{140}{3}[/tex]
Check both if they are equivalent (you do that)
