The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \(\left(\frac{15}{243} \times \frac{-27}{75}\right) + \left(\frac{8}{-66} \times \frac{-22}{40}\right)\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the first term \(\frac{15}{243} \times \frac{-27}{75}\) 1. **Factor and simplify**: - The fraction \(\frac{15}{75}\) simplifies to \(\frac{1}{5}\) because \(15 \div 15 = 1\) and \(75 \div 15 = 5\). - The fraction \(\frac{-27}{243}\) simplifies to \(\frac{-1}{9}\) because \(-27 \div -27 = -1\) and \(243 \div -27 = 9\). 2. **Combine the simplified fractions**: \[ \frac{15}{243} \times \frac{-27}{75} = \frac{1}{5} \times \frac{-1}{9} = \frac{-1}{45} \] ### Step 2: Simplify the second term \(\frac{8}{-66} \times \frac{-22}{40}\) 1. **Factor and simplify**: - The fraction \(\frac{8}{-66}\) simplifies to \(\frac{-4}{33}\) because \(8 \div 2 = 4\) and \(-66 \div 2 = -33\). - The fraction \(\frac{-22}{40}\) simplifies to \(\frac{-11}{20}\) because \(-22 \div 2 = -11\) and \(40 \div 2 = 20\). 2. **Combine the simplified fractions**: \[ \frac{-4}{33} \times \frac{-11}{20} = \frac{44}{660} \] 3. **Further simplify \(\frac{44}{660}\)**: - The GCD of 44 and 660 is 44, so: \[ \frac{44 \div 44}{660 \div 44} = \frac{1}{15} \] ### Step 3: Combine the two simplified terms Now we have: \[ \frac{-1}{45} + \frac{1}{15} \] 1. **Find a common denominator**: - The LCM of 45 and 15 is 45. 2. **Convert \(\frac{1}{15}\) to have a denominator of 45**: \[ \frac{1}{15} = \frac{3}{45} \] 3. **Combine the fractions**: \[ \frac{-1}{45} + \frac{3}{45} = \frac{-1 + 3}{45} = \frac{2}{45} \] ### Final Answer Therefore, the final result of the expression is: \[ \frac{2}{45} \]
