Question

$$\frac{-4}{5}\div(\frac{-3}{2})$$

Evaluate

$\frac{8}{15}\approx 0.533333333$

Solution Steps

Divide $\frac{-4}{5}$ by $\frac{-3}{2}$ by multiplying $\frac{-4}{5}$ by the reciprocal of $\frac{-3}{2}$.

$$\frac{-4\times 2}{5\left(-3\right)}$$

Multiply $-4$ and $2$ to get $-8$.

$$\frac{-8}{5\left(-3\right)}$$

Multiply $5$ and $-3$ to get $-15$.

$$\frac{-8}{-15}$$

Fraction $\frac{-8}{-15}$ can be simplified to $\frac{8}{15}$ by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$\frac{8}{15}$$
