ANSWER

The correct answer is C

EXPLANATION

We want to find the value of

[tex] - \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{8}{15} [/tex]

This is the same as:

[tex] - \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{8}{3 \times 5} [/tex]

We cancel out the common factors to get:

[tex]- \frac{1}{1} \times \frac{1}{1 \times 5} [/tex]

We simplify to get:

[tex] - \frac{1}{5} [/tex]

The correct answer is C
