Since the answer is in fraction form, you know to divide.

So, -24/7=

-3.42857143

If you want it in rounded form, its:

-3.42

So the answer is either: -3.42857143 or -3.42

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;

Sorry as a mixed number its -3 and 3/7

Hello there! Your answer would be
-3(3)/(7)!

You can't fit 24 directly into 7 nor can you divide 24 by 7, so you have to use the biggest number inside of 24 that divides into 7. This number would be 21. Pull 21 out of the fraction and divide it by 7, you get 3. You will still have 3/7 left over. You can't do anything with this, so your final answer is
-3(3)/(7).

Hope this helps, have a great day!
