Answer:


(5-7g)/(4)

Explanation:

−1/4 (−5 + 7g)

Use the distributive property to multiply -
(1)/(4) by -5 +7g

-
(1)/(4) (-5) -
(1)/(4) x 7g

Express -
(1)/(4) (-5) as a single fraction.


(-(-5))/(4) -
(1)/(4) x 7g

Multiply −1 and −5 to get 5.


(5)/(4) -
(1)/(4) x 7g

Express -
(1)/(4) x 7 as a single fraction.


(5)/(4) +
(-7)/(4) g

A fraction
(-7)/(4) can be rewritten
-(7)/(4) by extracting the negative sign.


(5)/(4) -
(7)/(4)g

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D
