Question

How do I solve -3/7 to equal 6

Answer 1

Multiply it by
`-14`

Explanation:

Let
`x` be the number that multiplies
`-(3)/(7)` to equal 6.

Then we can write the equation:
`-(3)/(7)x=6`

We multiply both sides by
`-(7)/(2)` to get:

`-(7)/(3)* -(3)/(7)x=6* -(7)/(3)`

This simplifies to
`x=-2*7=-14`

Hence we multiply
`-(3)/(7)` by -14 to 6
