Question

Select all the expressions that are equivalent to −5/6 / -1/3

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an expression for $\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}$.

We can solve it as follows.

We know that,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}$

So,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}=\dfrac{-5}{6}\times -3\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}$

or

$=2\dfrac{1}{2}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
