Answer:
-51/4 or -12 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First,
We need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions
-4 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = -9/2
2[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] = 17/6
-[tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]*[tex]\frac{17}{6}[/tex]
We can use cross canceling for 9 and 6
So,
[tex]\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]*[tex]\frac{17}{2}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{-51}{4}[/tex]
Hope this helps!! :)
