Find (−4/5) × (3/7) × (15/16) × (−14/9).

A1/2
B−1/2
C2
D1/4
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 1/2
Group the negatives first: (−4/5) × (−14/9) = 56/45. Group the positives: (3/7) × (15/16) = 45/112. Multiply: (56/45) × (45/112) = 56/112 = 1/2. The two negative signs cancel, and the 45s cancel cleanly.
