Question

-1 3/5 divided by -2/3 Write as a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer:

2 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. First convert the first into the improper fraction -8/5. Now because when dividing fractions you keep the first on, change to multiplication and flip the second equation you have

-8/5 x -3/2=?

Now you just multiply across as you would and normal time multiplying fractions. Remember a negative divided by a negative is a positive! And not after you keep, change, flip and multiply you are left with 24/10. Which is equal to 12/5 but you wanted a mixed number so we convert it into 2 2/5
