Sure. Okay, so we know that to find the, well, answer, we need to use improper fractions. 10 over 3 is the first one (negative of course). The second one is 11 over 3. Now, we times these:

11 x 10 = 110
3 x 3 = 9

110
-----
9

12 and 2 over 9, positive, since negative x negative = positive.

Hope this helped!

First off you need to convert the numbers into mixed numbers.
1 3/7 goes to 10/7
3 2/3 goes to 11/3

Then you multiply the numerators together:
10 * 11 = 110

Do the same for the denominators:
3 * 7 = 21

Then place it into a fraction and you make the fraction positive because the signs at the start are the same:
110/21

Then you can turn it into a proper fraction:
5 5/21
