Answer:

[tex]\frac{8}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Change the mixed number into an improper fraction: -1 × 3 = -3, -3 + 1 = -2. Put -2 over 3: [tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]  
  2. Multiply -2/3 and -2/5: [tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex] × [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{15}[/tex]  

Therefore, the answer is [tex]\frac{8}{15}[/tex].
