I like to use the way flip the second fraction then cross cancel then multiply.
(-2/7)/(-8/21)
= (-2/7)(-21/8) (cross cancel) so 8 / 2 = 4 and 21 / 7 = 3. The 7 and 2 becomes 1.
= (-1/1)(-3/4)
= 3/4 or decimal 0.75
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2/7) / (-8/21)
= (-2/7) * (-21/8)
=(-2*-21) / (7*8)
=42/56
= 3/4 -simplified
