Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Reciprocal of -5/8 is -8/5 { Minus symbol is always in the numerator. }

(-3)/16 x -8/5 { cancel by 8 i.e 8 ( in numerator) by 16 ( in denominator) }

= -3/2 x -1/5 { as we cancel by 8, we get 8x1=8 and 8x2= 16 } now multiplcation

= 3/10 { minus into minus = plus, hene -3 x -1 = 3. (in numerator) and 2x5=10 (in denominator)

therefore, product= 3/10
