Question

Use the invert-and-multiply rule to divide. Reduce your answer to lowest terms.4 divide (- 2/5)

Answer 1

- 10

Explanation:

We have the following expression

`4/\mleft(-(2)/(5)\mright)`

We know that when dividing from, the nvert-and-multiply rule must be applied, as follows

`\begin{gathered} 4/\mleft(-(2)/(5)\mright)\rightarrow4*\mleft(-(5)/(2)\mright)=(4\cdot-5)/(2)=(-20)/(2)=-10 \\ \end{gathered}`

Therefore the result of the operation is -10
