Answer:
-48xy
Explanation:
This looks like a product with 5 factors in parentheses. There are 3 minus signs involved. Since 3 is an odd number, we know the product will be negative.
The factors 3/4 and 4/3 will cancel each other when multiplied. (They are reciprocals—multiplicative inverses—of each other, so their product is the multiplicative identity element, 1.)
Having taken care of the other factors, we are left with (8y)(6x). This product is ... (8·6)(x·y) = 48xy . . . . . . . . . the commutative property of multiplication lets us rearrange the order to one we like.
So, our product is the negative (opposite) of 48xy:
... -48xy
