Answer:

The Answer would be 2/25 or 0.08

Explanation:

Turn -0.005 into -5/100. Then multiply it by the reciprocal of -5/8 which is -8/5. We can simplify and it will get us to -1/25 * -2. We know that if we multiply 2 negatives together, it will equal to a positive. And so, we get our answer which is 2/25 or 0.08
