Solve the following
$ \frac{-4}{5} \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{15}{16} \times\left(\frac{-14}{9}\right) $
Given: $(\frac{-4}{5}) \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{15}{16} \times (\frac{-14}{9})$
To Find : We have to find the value of $(\frac{-4}{5}) \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{15}{16} \times (\frac{-14}{9})$.
Solution:
Rearranging the terms, we get
$\frac{-4}{5} \times \frac{15}{16} \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{-14}{9}$
We know that $4 \times 4=16$, 5 $\times$ 3 =15, 7 $\times$ 2=14 and 3 $\times$ 2=9. Therefore,
$\frac{-4}{5} \times \frac{15}{16} \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{-14}{9}$
= $\frac{-1}{1}\times \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{1}\times \frac{-2}{3}$
=$\frac{-3}{4} \times \frac{-2}{3}$ (negative multiplied with positive gives negative)
=$\frac{6}{12}$ (-ve multiplied with -ve gives +ve)
=$\frac{1}{2}$
Therefore the solution of the expression is $\frac{1}{2}$
