Step 2.1.1

Move the leading negative in $- \frac{3}{2}$ into the numerator.

$y = \frac{- 3}{2} \cdot - 4$

Step 2.1.2

Factor $2$ out of $- 4$ .

$y = \frac{- 3}{2} \cdot (2 (- 2))$

Step 2.1.3

Cancel the common factor.

$y = \frac{- 3}{2} \cdot (2 \cdot - 2)$

Step 2.1.4

Rewrite the expression.

$y = - 3 \cdot - 2$

Step 2.2

Multiply $- 3$ by $- 2$ .

$y = 6$
