Answer 2

`\boxed{\sf (11)/(25) }`

Explanation:

To Multiply:

`\sf \left( -(11)/(15)\right) \cdot \left( -(3)/(5)\right)`

Solution:

In order to multiply two fractions, we multiply the numerators and the denominators:

`\sf \left( -(11)/(15)\right) \cdot \left( -(3)/(5)\right)= (-11 \cdot -3)/(15 \cdot 5)`

`\sf = (33)/(75)`

Note: When we multiply - and - it will be +.

`We can simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3:

`\sf (33)/(75) = (33 / 3)/(75 / 3)`

`\sf = (11)/(25)`

Therefore, the product in simplified fraction is:

`\boxed{\sf (11)/(25) }`
