Simplify. 1+9i / -7-6i

OpenStudy (wolframwizard):

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. The conjugate of a+b is a-b just in case you didn't know.

OpenStudy (joshoyen):

So the conjugate is -7+6i?

OpenStudy (wolframwizard):

Yes

OpenStudy (joshoyen):

I got -61-66i/85

OpenStudy (wolframwizard):

The -61 and 85 are correct but the -66 should be -57. Check your work to see if you made a calculation error somewhere
