Answer:

9/28

Explanation:

when you divide a fraction by fraction you need to multiply the left fraction by the opposite of right fraction so -7/9 becomes -9/7 and then you multiply -1/4 by -9/7. When you multiply negative with negative you get a positive value.

it's better to display fractions vertically like this to understand better
