Answer:

25/64

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this answer, first you need to use the distributive property:

(-3/8)(-5/8) - (1/4)(-5/8)

Next, multiply:

15/64 - (-5/32)

Change the negative signs into a positive sign:

15/64 + 5/32

Multiply 5/32 by 2 on both top and bottom:

15/64 + (5)(2)/(32)(2)

You will then get:

15/64 + 10/64

Now, add the numerators. You will get:

25/64

This is your answer. I hope it helped!
