Question

the product of -2/3 and -3/5​

Answer 1

Given data,

We have to find the product of $\frac{-2}{3}$ and $\frac{-3}{5}$

As we know that product means multiplication.

The multiplication symbol is denoted by $"\times"$

Multiplication: It is one of the mathematical operations. The process of combining the quantities to obtain their product.

$\frac{-2}{3} \times \frac{-3}{5}$

Three in both numerator and denominator get cancelled.

As we know that the mathematical symbols,

$(-)\times(-)=(+)$

We get,

$\frac{2}{5}$

Therefore, the product of $\frac{-2}{3}$ and $\frac{-3}{5}$ is $\frac{2}{5}$

Answer 2

Here we have to take the product of -2/3 and -3/5​

1) Now, first, we will solve for the signs

When we multiply a negative number by a negative number, the answer comes out to be positive

- × - = +

2) Now, while multiplying fractions, the numerator is multiplied by the numerator and the denominator is multiplied by the denominator.

Now, we will solve the given problem

$\frac{-2}{3} \times\frac{-3}{5} = \frac{2 \times 3}{3\times5}$

             $=\frac{2}{5}$

Hence, the answer will be 2/5
