Answer:

15/2 or 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3÷ (-2/5)

The reciprocal of -2/5 is -5/2

So we multiply -3 into the reciprocal of the fraction and we can get the same answer

Therefore,

-3÷(-2/5)

= -3x -5/2

= (-5x-3)/2

(Two negatives become a positive)

= 15/2 in fraction form

And 7.5 in decimal form
