Answer:
[tex]-2\frac{1}{3}\times 1\frac{1}{2}=-3.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the product of [tex]-2\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Upon writing our expression as a product we will get,
[tex]-2\frac{1}{3}\times 1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Let us convert our given mixed fractions to improper fractions.
[tex]\frac{-7}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Upon cancelling out 3 from our given expression we will get,
[tex]\frac{-7}{2}[/tex]
Upon dividing -7 by 2 we will get,
[tex]\frac{-7}{2}=-3.5[/tex]
Therefore, our expression simplifies to -3.5.
