Chapter 0, Problem 34PO

To determine

The simplest form of the given algebraic expression.

Answer to Problem 34PO

  $\frac{9}{2}$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Algebraic Expression,

  $-6.\left(\frac{-3}{4}\right)$

Calculation:

  $\begin{array}{c}-6.\left(\frac{-3}{4}\right)=\frac{-6}{1}\times \left(\frac{-3}{4}\right)\\ =\frac{-6\times -3}{1\times 4}\\ =\frac{18}{4}\\ =\frac{18\times 2}{4\times 2}\\ =\frac{9}{2}\end{array}$

Conclusion:

Hence, the simplest form of given algebraic expression is $\frac{9}{2}$ .
