Answer:


(1)/(2)

Explanation:

[- 4/5] [- 14/9] = 56/45

= 56/45×3/7×15/16

1. Apply the fraction rule : a × c = a × c

b d. b d


= (56 * 3 * 15)/(45 * 7 * 16)

2. Factor the number : 56 = 7 ×8


= (7 * 8 * 3 * 15)/(45 * 7 * 16)

3. Cancel the common factor : 7


= (8 * 3 * 15)/(45 * 16)

3. Factor the number : 16 = 8 × 3


= (8 * 3 * 15)/(45 * 8 * 2)

4. Cancel the common factor : 8


= (3 * 15)/(45 * 2)

5. Factor the number : 45 = 3 × 15


= (3 * 15)/(3 * 15 * 2)

6. Cancel the common factor : 3


= (15)/(15 * 2)

7. Cancel the common factor : 15


= (1)/(2)

Solution :


= (1)/(2)
