  1. (1/2)(-5/8) or (1/2)(-5/8) or (-5/8)/2 = -3.125
    2. (1/3)(11/16) or (1/3)    (11/16) or (11/16)/3 = 11/48

Answer:

1)

                  \(\dfrac{-5}{16}=-0.3125\)

2)

                   \(\dfrac{11}{48}=0.2292\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to evaluate the expression:

1)

One half of negative five eighths.

This expression could be numerically given as:

\(=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (\dfrac{-5}{8})\\\\\\=\dfrac{-5}{16}=-0.3125\)

2)

One third of eleven sixteenths.

i.e. we have to evaluate the numerical expression:

\(=\dfrac{1}{3}\times (\dfrac{11}{16})\\\\\\=\dfrac{11}{48}=0.2292\)
