Answer:

  -0.46 or -23/50

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that 0.14 is easily divisible by 7, so we can do this using the distributive property:

  (-3 2/7)(0.14) = (-1)(3 + 2/7)(0.14)

  = (-1)(3×0.14 +2/7×0.14)

  = (-1)(0.42 +0.04)

  = -0.46 . . . . . decimal form

  = -46/100 . . . . place value

  = -23/50 . . . . remove common factor of 2; fraction form

The product is -0.46 or -23/50.
