(4)/(7)/(-3)/(8)

With division when using fraction the first fraction stays the same, but you will switch the division sign to multiplication and you will take the reciprocale (flip the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction like so...


(4)/(7)*(-8)/(3)

Now you can multiply normally:


(4*(-8))/(7*3)


(-32)/(21) <<<This is your answer

Hope this helped!
