Question
Find the product of:
`(-4)/5` and `(-5)/12`
Advertisements
Solution
Given, `(-4)/5` and `(-5)/12`
∴ Product of rational numbers = `"Product of numerators"/"Product of denominators"`
= `((-4) xx (-5))/(5 xx 12)`
= `20/60`
= `(20 ÷ 20)/(60 ÷ 20)` ...[Dividing numerator and denominator by 20]
= `1/3`
