Answer 15

Wow dude u lost me

Answer 16

OKay so why did u do -1/8 x 2?

Answer 17

Did i screw up @iGreen ?
Havent done this in ages...

Answer 18

Okay, you said the common denominator is 8.

So we only have to change -5/4, because -1/8 already has a denominator of 8.

Can you change -5/4 to a denominator of 8? @lin

Answer 19

wouldnt it just me -5/8?

Answer 20

Yes, you did xD

You're supposed to have 8 for the denominator..not 16. But it kind of doesn't matter, it's just at the end you have to simplify the fraction if you make it 16 instead of 8.

Answer 21

No, you multiplied 2 to 4 to get 8, so you have to multiply 2 to -5 too.

Therefore, you'll get: \(\dfrac{-5 \times 2}{-4 \times 2} = -\dfrac{10}{8}\)

Answer 22

I was thinking of that...but then something was like..I wonder =.=
*click* ima experiment!
Works either way though...Im quite sure is -1/10...Not 100% sure though...

Answer 23

The contradictory though:
"Im quite sure is -1/10...not 100% sure though"

Answer 24

thats a mixed number right? and im sorry if yall are annoyed i just have a ahrd time learning this

Answer 25

hard*

Answer 26

Oh wait..I messed up..lol it's division so we don't need a common denominator.

When dividing fractions, flip the second one and multiply.

\(-\dfrac{1}{8} \div -\dfrac{5}{4} \rightarrow -\dfrac{1}{8} \times -\dfrac{4}{5}\)

Can you multiply those? Just multiply the top numbers and the bottom numbers together.

Answer 27

4/40

Answer 28

Yes! That's correct! But we can simplify it more..can you do that?

Answer 29

And that would be 1/10 right

Answer 30

Yep!

Answer 31

not negative right?

Answer 32

You almost had it. xD @undeadknight26
