Question

step by step on how to solve 1/8(-4/3)

Answer 1

the expression is:

$\frac{1}{8}(-\frac{4}{3})$

So to multiply fraction we have to multiply the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator so:

$-\frac{1\cdot4}{8\cdot3}=-\frac{4}{24}$

Now we can simplify the expression by dividing by 4 in the nominator and the denominator so:

$-\frac{\frac{4}{4}}{\frac{24}{4}}=-\frac{1}{6}$
