Answer:


-12

Explanation:

Given that:


a=(1)/(4) \\b=6

To evaluate the expression
-8ab, we must simply substitute the given values into the expression, and solve:


-8((1)/(4) )(6)

Multiply
-8 and 6:


-48*(1)/(4)

Cross-cancel by dividing
-48 and
4 by
4:


-(12)/(1) *(1)/(1)

Multiply:


-12

  • a =
    \sf (1)/(4)
  • b = 6


\underline{ \underline{ \sf{ \: To \: find : }}}

  • -8ab


\sf{Plug \: the \: given \: values} :


\tt{ - 8 * (1)/(4) * 6}


\tt{ ( - 8 * 1 * 6)/(4)}

Remember : Multiplying negative integer by positive integer gives a negative integer.


\tt{ ( - 48)/(4) }

Remember : Dividing negative integer by positive integer gives a negative integer.


\sf{ \boxed{ - 12 }}


\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \bold{ \purple{\tt{Our \: final \: answer : - 12}}}}}}
