\(- \frac{5}{12}\)
Okay, we see:
\(- \frac{5}{8}\) and \(\frac{2}{3}\)
First, we forget about the bottom part and the negative, we first multiply the top two numbers:
5 2 = 10
Then the two numbers at the bottom:
83 = 24
Then it will be \(\frac{10}{24}\)
Because both of them can be divided by 2 nicely so divide the number on top by 2 and the number at the bottom by 2:
10/2 = 5
24/2 = 12
So it would be \(\frac{5}{12}\)
DO NOT FORGET THE NEGATIVE!!
It is negative so it would be \(- \frac{5}{12}\)
