7. $-\frac{1}{6}(2.4)$

Question

  1. $-\frac{1}{6}(2.4)$

Explanation:

Step1: Convert decimal to fraction

2.4 can be written as $\frac{24}{10}=\frac{12}{5}$.

Step2: Multiply the fractions

Now we have $-\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{12}{5}$. The 12 and 6 can be simplified (12 ÷ 6 = 2). So it becomes $-\frac{1 \times 2}{5}=-\frac{2}{5}$.

Step3: Convert back to decimal (optional, but 2/5 is 0.4)

$-\frac{2}{5} = - 0.4$.

Answer:

-0.4
