We are given the following expression


\mleft(-247.43\mright)\mleft(-5\mright)=\mleft(-1\mright)\mleft(247.43\mright)\mleft(-1\mright)\mleft(5\mright)

We are asked to re-write the above expression by grouping -1s together and the other terms together.


(-247.43)(-5)=(-1)\mleft(-1\mright)(247.43)(5)

(-247.53)(-5) = (-1)(-1)(247.43)(5)

Please note that the above expression is still the same and valid since the order of terms does not change anything.
