Answer 1

We must create a common denominator.

Answer 2

We have to multiply the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction by a number that will create a denominator of 10.

10/5 = 2

\[\frac {-4 \times 2}{-5 \times 2}\]

Answer 3

8/10

Answer 4

Hmm. Let's do this an easier way. Dividing a fraction is the same as multiplying by it's reciprocal.

\[\frac{7}{10} \div \frac {4}{5} = \frac{7}{10} \times \frac{5}{4}\]

Answer 5

So let's multiply the numerators and denominators.

7 * 5 = ?
10 * 4 = ?

Answer 6

35
40

Answer 7

Yes, so we have: \[\frac {35}{40}\]

Answer 8

This can be simplified. Both of these numbers are divisible by 5.

\[\frac {35 \div 5}{40 \div 5} = ?\]

Answer 9

7
8

Answer 10

Yeah.
