Simplify 4*(-4/3)

Solution

4 \cdot (- 4/3)

- \frac{16}{3}

Solution steps

4 (- 4/3)

Follow the PEMDAS order of operations

Calculate within parentheses

(- 4/3) : \frac{- 4}{3}

- 4/3

- 4/3 = \frac{- 4}{3}

= \frac{- 4}{3}

= 4 \cdot \frac{- 4}{3}

Multiply and divide (left to right)

4 \cdot \frac{- 4}{3} : - \frac{16}{3}

4 \cdot \frac{- 4}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

\frac{- 4}{3} = - \frac{4}{3}

= 4 (- \frac{4}{3})

Apply rule:

a (- b) = - ab

4 (- \frac{4}{3}) = - 4 \cdot \frac{4}{3}

= - 4 \cdot \frac{4}{3}

- 4 \cdot \frac{4}{3} = - \frac{16}{3}

- 4 \cdot \frac{4}{3}

Convert element to fraction:

4 = \frac{4}{1}

= - \frac{4}{1} \cdot \frac{4}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b \cdot d}

\frac{4}{1} \cdot \frac{4}{3} = \frac{4 \cdot 4}{1 \cdot 3}

= - \frac{4 \cdot 4}{1 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 4 = 16

= - \frac{16}{1 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 3 = 3

= - \frac{16}{3}

= - \frac{16}{3}

= - \frac{16}{3}

\frac{26}{8}

\frac{34}{45}
