Answer:

[tex]\frac{45y}{56x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5}{-7x} times \frac{-9y}{8}[/tex]

When we multiply two fractions we multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator

5 times -9y is -45y

Then -7x  times 8 is -56x

So the fraction becomes [tex]\frac{-45y}{-56x}[/tex]

we have negative at the top and bottom so it becomes positive

[tex]\frac{45y}{56x}[/tex]

We cannot simplify further
