Answer:


- (1)/(6)

Explanation:

Multiplying a positive and a negative equals a negative: ( + ) × ( - ) = ( - )


- (4)/(9) * (3)/(8)

Reduce the number with the greatest common factor 4:


- (1)/(9) * (3)/(2)

Reduce the number with the greatest common factor 3:


- (1)/(3) * (1)/(2)

Multiplying the fractions:


1 * 1 = 1 \\ 3 * 2 = 6

Therefore, the answer will be - 1/6.
