Solve (-19/8)*(-61/4)=

$$( - 1 \frac { 9 } { 8 } ) \cdot ( - 6 \frac { 1 } { 4 } ) =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{425}{32}=13.28125$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 1 and 8 to get 8.

$$\left(-\frac{8+9}{8}\right)\left(-\frac{6\times 4+1}{4}\right)$$

Add 8 and 9 to get 17.

$$-\frac{17}{8}\left(-\frac{6\times 4+1}{4}\right)$$

Multiply 6 and 4 to get 24.

$$-\frac{17}{8}\left(-\frac{24+1}{4}\right)$$

Add 24 and 1 to get 25.

$$-\frac{17}{8}\left(-\frac{25}{4}\right)$$

Multiply -\frac{17}{8} times -\frac{25}{4} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$\frac{-17\left(-25\right)}{8\times 4}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-17\left(-25\right)}{8\times 4}.

$$\frac{425}{32}$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 ^ {2} \cdot 17}{2 ^ {5}} = 13\frac{9}{32} = 13.28125$$
