Answer:

C D F

Explanation:

Taking -40/2, we know our answer must be -20.

Testing each answer choice proves this.

A= 40*1/2, which is equal to 40/2, which is 20.

B= -40*-1/2, again, equaling 20.

C= 40/-2. Since one of our terms is negative, this one is -20.

D= 40*-1/2, again, -20.

E= -1/40*2. This would equal -2/40, using fraction multiplication.

F= -40*1/2, Which is the exact same thing the original question asks.

Thus, our final answer is C, D, and F.
