Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can figure out a and b using the expressions below:

A/-5 = 8 (Multiply both sides by -5)

A = -40

8/B = -4 (Multiply both sides by B)

8 = -4*B (Divide both sides by -4)

-2 = B

We can then divide A by B (-40/-2) and get 20.

Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. a/(-5) = 8

a = 8 * (-5) = -40

2. 8/b = -4

b = 8/(-4) = -2

3. a/b = (-40)/(-2) = 20
