Answer 1

To evaluate the expression 7/5(1/4 divided by 7/4)(-10), divide, multiply, and then multiply again to get the answer -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the expression 7/5(1/4 divided by 7/4)(-10), we need to follow the order of operations, which is parentheses, multiplication/division (from left to right), and then addition/subtraction (from left to right).

First, divide 1/4 by 7/4: (1/4) / (7/4) = (1/4) * (4/7) = 1/7.

Next, multiply 7/5 by 1/7: (7/5) * (1/7) = 7/35.

Finally, multiply 7/35 by -10: (7/35) * (-10) = -2.

Therefore, the answer is -2, so the correct option is C) -2.
