Question

what is the value of the expression \\(\frac{-5(6.6)}{3}\\)?
a. 11
b. -10
c. -33
d. -11

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply -5 and 6.6

First, we calculate the numerator: $-5\times6.6 = -33$

Step2: Divide the result by 3

Now, we divide the numerator by the denominator: $\frac{-33}{3} = -11$ Wait, no, wait. Wait, let's check again. Wait, $-5\times6.6$: 5 times 6.6 is 33, so with the negative sign, it's -33. Then divide by 3: -33 divided by 3 is -11? Wait, but the option C is -33. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the expression is $\frac{-5(6.6)}{3}$. Let's compute step by step. First, 6.6 times -5: 6.6 5 = 33, so 6.6(-5) = -33. Then divide by 3: -33 / 3 = -11? Wait, but the option C is -33. Wait, maybe the original expression is $\frac{-5(6.6\times3)}{3}$? No, the expression is $\frac{-5(6.6)}{3}$. Wait, let's recalculate: 6.6 divided by 3 is 2.2, then multiply by -5: -5*2.2 = -11. Wait, but the option D is -11. Wait, maybe the user made a typo? Wait, the options are A.11, B.-10, C.-33, D.-11. So according to the calculation, $\frac{-5\times6.6}{3} = \frac{-33}{3} = -11$. So the correct answer is D. -11.

Wait, maybe I misread the expression. Let me check again. The expression is $\frac{-5(6.6)}{3}$. So numerator is -5*6.6 = -33, denominator is 3. So -33/3 = -11. So the answer is D. -11.

Answer:

D. -11
