Answer:

24/ -38

Explanation:

We have to do the opposite of multiplication here, which is division.

If the product is 16/19 and a factor is -4/3 then : (16/19) / (-4/3)

Lets flip the switch, meaning change the symbol and flip the fraction: (16/19) * (3/-4)

Multiply 16 * 3 = 48

19 * -4= -76

We now have the fraction 48/-76

When simplified it will be: 24/-38
