Question

PLEASE AWNSER Simplify negative 4 over 5 ÷ 3 over negative 2.

Answer 1

Answer:

8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is because to multiply, you take the reciprocal of the fraction...

So

4/5/3/-2, right? So that's basically -4/5 ÷ 3/-2 so 4/5 * -2/3. The reciprocal of a fraction is literally just flipping it. Now, you know how to multiply, right?

-4/5 * -2/3 = (you can't simplify) 8 (negative times negative = positive) / 5*3

so 8/5*3 = 8/15. 8/15 is 0.53333, or you can just keep it as a fraction.
