Question

Evaluate(-7/10 + 0.15) ÷ (-0.125 )A -6.8B -4.4C 4.4D 6.8

Answer 1

write out the question

`(-7/10+0.15)/-0.125`

To simplify the question, change fraction to decimal and simplify

Hence

`(7)/(10)=0.7`

Then we have

`(-0.7+0.15)(.)/(.)-0.125`

According to PEMDAS rule, we evaluate the dividsion operation first

`\begin{gathered} -0.55(.)/(.)-0.125 \\ \end{gathered}`

Then, by division, we have

`-0.55(.)/(.)-0.125=4.4`

Therefore

Answer: 4.4 (Option C)
