Chapter 8.1, Problem 54SR

To determine

To calculate: To find each product or quotient

Answer to Problem 54SR

Product is $-\frac{1}{4}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Expression is $\frac{3}{4}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)$

Calculation:

Expression is given as follows:

  $\frac{3}{4}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)$

On solving the above expression

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{3}{4}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=\frac{3}{4}\times -\frac{1}{3}\\ \frac{3}{4}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=\frac{1}{4}\times -\frac{1}{1}\\ \frac{3}{4}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)=-\frac{1}{4}\end{array}$

Hence, product is $-\frac{1}{4}$
