m×n=25953×n=259n=259÷53n=259×35n=25×39×5n=7545n=53n=123m \times n = -\dfrac{25}{9}\\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{3} \times n = - \dfrac{25}{9}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -\dfrac{25}{9} ÷ \dfrac{5}{3}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -\dfrac{25}{9} \times \dfrac{3}{5}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -\dfrac{25 \times 3}{9 \times 5}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -\dfrac{75}{45}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -\dfrac{5}{3}\\[1em] \Rightarrow n = -1\dfrac{2}{3}

if m=53m = \dfrac{5}{3}, then n=123.n = -1\dfrac{2}{3}.
