Isolate the variable g on one side of the equation by multiplying by (-7/4) on each side. The fours cancel since you get (4/5)*(-7/4) = (4/4)*(-7/5) = 1*(-7/5) and you're left with g = (-7/5) = -1 2/5 = -1.40

(4)/(5)= (-4)/(7g)\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 4\cdot7g=5\cdot(-4)\ /:(4\cdot7)\\ \\g= (5\cdot(-4))/(4\cdot7) = -(5)/(7) \\\\------------\\\\ (4)/(5)= (-4)/(7)\cdot g\ /\cdot (- (7)/(4) )\\ \\ g=(4)/(5)\cdot (- (7)/(4) )=- (7)/(5)
