Answer:

Negative fifteen and thirteen- fifteens

Explanation:

ok so one way you could have solved it is by taking 2 4/5 and turning into 14/5 by adding the 2 to the fraction to make it an improper fraction, then you would do the same thing to -5 2/3 and it would be -17/3 so then you multiply and the answer would be -15 13/15

Answer:

Mixed number: -12 2/15

Improper fraction: -182/15

Explanation:

2 4/5 x -5 2/3

First, change into improper fractions

14/5 x -13/3

= -182/15

= -12 2/15

Hope this helps
