Answer:

-9/14

Explanation:

The product of fractions is found by multiplying the denominators and the numerators, the product of the denominators will be the new denominator, and the product of the numerators will be the new numerator.

3/4 * -6/7 = (3 * -6)/(4 * 7) = -18/28

Simplify: -18/28 = -9/14
