Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Turn the mixed number into an improper fraction. -1 2/5 becomes -7/5. To divide fractions, you keep the first fraction, change the division sign to mulitplication and flip the second fraction. Then just multiply across the top and across the bottom. You will get 105/70. Reduce by dividing both numerator and denomination by 35 Result will be 3/2.

Ivan

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Yes.

$\forall\ a,b\ \in\ B,\ a+b\in B\ (since\ 0+0=0)$

b) Yes

$W=\{0,1,2,3,..,\}\ (whole\ numbers)\\\forall\ a,b\ \in\ 3W,\ a+b\in 3W\\since:\\a\ \in\ 3W \Longrightarrow\ \exists\ k_1\in W | a=3*k_1\\\\b\ \in\ 3W \Longrightarrow\ \exists\ k_2\in W | b=3*k_2\\\\a+b=3*k_1+3*k_2=3*(k_1+k_2) \in 3W\\$
