Answer 1

Answer:

B) $-\frac{a}{-b}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, we have to know that two negatives equal positive.

2. Given the information above, $-\frac{-a}{b}$ can simplify to $\frac{a}{b}$.

3. Let's go through each answer choice and see which one also simplifies to $\frac{a}{b}$.

A:

• $\frac{a}{-b}$
• $-\frac{a}{b}$

B:

• $-\frac{a}{-b}$  
• $\frac{a}{b}$

Therefore, the answer is B) $-\frac{a}{-b}$.
