Best Answer

-2 * 3/(-8) * (-5)/7

There are three negatives being multiplied so the final sign is negative.

- (2*3*5)/(8*7) = -15/28

-2 * 3/(-8) * (-5)/7

There are three negatives being multiplied so the final sign is negative.

- (2*3*5)/(8*7) = -15/28

-2 * 3/(-8) * (-5)/7

There are three negatives being multiplied so the final sign is negative.

- (2*3*5)/(8*7) = -15/28
