We are asked to find the value of (negative two-fifths) (three-forths) (negative two-fifths)

Let's convert them into numbers

$(-(2)/(5))\cdot((3)/(4))\cdot(-(2)/(5))$

two-fifths means 2 over 5

three-forths means 3 over 4

When we multily fractions, we multiply all the numerators together and also all denominators together.

Also notice that when a negative is multiplied with another negative then the result becomes positive.
