Question
$$3.3\cdot(-2)\cdot\frac{5}{2}\cdot6 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 3.3\cdot(-2)\cdot\frac{5}{2}\cdot6 &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 2 }. \\[1 em]23.3\cdot(-2)\cdot\frac{5}{2}\cdot6 &= 2\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]-198 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ -198 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
