Answer:
Assuming the question is asking for simplification:
1. [tex]\frac{-16}{3}[/tex] or -5[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
2. -6
3. -6
4. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
-8 × [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
- -8 is the same as the fraction [tex]\frac{-8}{1}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{-8}{1}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
- Multiply the numerators and denominators separately.
[tex]\frac{-8}{1}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-16}{3}[/tex]
2.
[tex]\frac{-18}{3}[/tex]
- Ask yourself, "How any times does 3 go into -18?" or "By how much do I need to multiply 3 to equal -18?" In this case the answer would be -6.
[tex]\frac{-18}{3}[/tex] = -6
3.
[tex]\frac{18}{-3}[/tex]
- Again, ask yourself, "How any times does -3 go into 18?" or "By how much do I need to multiply -3 to equal 18?" In this case the answer would be -6.
[tex]\frac{18}{-3}[/tex] = -6
4.
[tex]\frac{-18}{-3}[/tex]
- -3 goes into -18 6 times. Multiply -3 by 6 to equal -18.
[tex]\frac{-18}{-3}[/tex] = 6
