Answer:


-(3)/(4) meters

Explanation:

From the answer choices, we basically need to find which of them is between
-(1)/(2) and
-1(2)/(3)

Converting all of them to decimals would make it really easier:

So we need to find number between -0.5 and -1.67

Answer choice A is -2.33

Answer choice B is -0.75

Answer choice C is -0.25

Answer chioce D is -1.83

So which number, from the choices, is between -0.5 & -1.67?

Clearly, it is -0.75, or,
-(3)/(4) meters
