Answer: 81/100



Step-by-step explanation:

I don't guarantee you I am right but..

first, solve for the exponents after substituting the numbers in

3/5 x 3/5 is 9/25

since b's exponent is negative, you change the fraction into its reciprocal and then do it with the exponent but positive

2/3^-3 to 3/2^3 and 3/2 x 3/2 is 9/4

then you mutiply both numbers to get 9/4 x 9/25 is 81/100
