Math help!!! Please? How to solve -5/3÷-9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ -5 }{ \frac{ 3 }{ -9 }}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah I think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you would first multiply by -9 to get rid of the fraction in the numerator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what would I multiply with -9?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the numerator and denominator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

45/-27

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you have a negative in the denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would just be multiplied by -1 and you would get -45/27
