Answer 2

The answer as a mixed fraction is - 1
`\frac{1}3}`.

Explanation:

The expression given is,

(3
`(5)/(9)`) ÷ (-2
`(2)/(3)`).

Converting the two values to an improper fraction, we have:

`(32)/(9)` ÷ -
`(8)/(3)`

Convert the division sign to multiplication sign, so that;

=
`(32)/(9)` × -
`(3)/(8)`

= -
`(96)/(72)`

Divide both the numerator and denominator by 8.

= -
`(12)/(9)`

= - 1
`\frac{1}3}`

Thus, the answer as a mixed fraction is - 1
`\frac{1}3}`.
