Question

$$(-\frac{3}{5^{-1}})$$

Evaluate

$-15$

Solution Steps

Calculate $5$ to the power of $-1$ and get $\frac{1}{5}$.

$$-\frac{3}{\frac{1}{5}}$$

Divide $3$ by $\frac{1}{5}$ by multiplying $3$ by the reciprocal of $\frac{1}{5}$.

$$-3\times 5$$

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

$$-15$$

Factor

$-15$
