Theres a saying: Dividing fractions dont ask why, just flip the second and multiply.
so a/b / c/d = a/b * d/c
-8/2 * -3/6
1. cross - cancel common factor 2
4/2 * -3/3
2. Multiply
-4(-3)/ 2*3
3. multiply numbers
--12/2*3
- -12/6
4. Apply fraction rule -a/b=- a/b
=-(-12/6)
5. divide
= -(-2)
6. Apply rule -(-a)=a
=2
Your answer would be 2

Answer:
the answer is "B" (thank me later) ;))
Answer: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We follow BIMDAS.
So it becomes :
2+2×24/4 after the first step.
Then, 4+48/4
Then, 4+12
Which is 16
When calculating consecutive integers, the smaller number is x and the larger number is (x + 1).
So the equation you can use is x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
This is because the sum of the consecutive integers are equal to 5 more than 3 times the larger integer.
Now simplify:
x + (x + 1) = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3(x + 1)
2x + 1 = 5 + 3x + 3
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Now isolate the variable:
2x + 1 = 3x + 8
Subtract 2x from both sides:
1 = x + 8
Subtract 8 from both side:
-7 = x
x = -7
So the smaller number is -7 and the larger number is -6.
Now check your answer:
-7 + (-7 + 1) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 + (-6) = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-7 - 6 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-7 + 1)
-13 = 5 + 3(-6)
-13 = 5 + (-18)
-13 = 5 - 18
-13 = -13
This works!
So the integers are -7 and -6.
