Given:
-1 3/7 x ( -3 ⅔)
Solution:
In order to solve the given numerical equation, we will first changed the mixed number in decimal value. We are not given any limitations on what the answer must be stated in, therefore the easiest way is to change the mixed number into decimal
-1 3/7 = - 1.43
-3 ⅔ = -3. 67
Now we can easily multiply the two values. Note that when multiplying a number with the same sign, the answer will be positive. For numbers with different sign, the answer will become negative.
= (-1.43)(-3.67)
= 5.2481
