Answer: - 7 1/3 or -88/12 (it depends)

Explanation:

To solve this equation, multiply the second number using it's reciprocal. A reciprocal is a flipped version of a fraction.

(3/4 to 4/3)

-22/4 x 4/3 = -88/12

Change it to a mixed number.

-7 1/3

Therefore, - 7 1/3 is the answer to this problem or keep it as -88/12.

I hope this helps mburlett5833:)!
