Answer:

$\pink{ - 1 \frac{7}{9} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$( \frac{2}{5} \div \frac{3}{8} ) \div ( - \frac{3}{5} ) \\ (\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{8}{3} ) \times ( - \frac{5}{3} ) \\ \frac{16}{15} \times - \frac{5}{3} \\ - \frac{80}{45}$

As the answer can be more simplified, divide both numerator and denominator by 5.

$- \frac{16}{9} = - 1 \frac{7}{9}$

Please help me with i ii iii<br> Step by step

(i) I used distributive property to get the x’s and y’s out of parentheses. I then combined like-terms to simplify until I could do no more. That is your final answer for (i) is -3x - 12y

(ii) This one is similar to the first one, just with no parentheses. I combined like terms again until not like terms were left. Your final answer for (ii) is -3k -2 -2n

(iii) I started by dividing 15 by 3 and got 5, and because the 15 had an x to it, you get 5x. I then moved onto the next term, 9. 9 divided by 3, to get 3. Your final answer for (iii) is 5x + 3
