Final answer:

Equivalent expressions to -11/4 are -11 divided by 4 and -11/4. The other options given are not equivalent as they do not have the correct negative sign, which is crucial in maintaining the value of the fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

You've asked which expressions are equivalent to -11/4. Let's look at each option:

  • -11 divided by 4 is indeed -11/4 because 'divided by' is represented with the '/' symbol in fractions.
  • 11 divided by 4 is not equivalent because it lacks the negative sign, making it positive 11/4.
  • -11 divided by -4 is not equivalent because when you divide a negative by a negative, you get a positive result (here it would be 11/4).
  • -11/4 is exactly the same as the original expression, so it's equivalent.
  • -11/-4 is not equivalent for the same reason that -11 divided by -4 isn't; it would result in 11/4.

From these options, the expressions that are equivalent to -11/4 are -11 divided by 4 and -11/4.
