Answer:

1 is the answer

Explanation:

-9/6/3/-2

Made the second number the reciprocal =

-9/6 / -2/3

Switch the sign to a multiplication sign =

-9/6 * -2/3

Simplify the numerator =

-9*-2 = 18

Simplify the denominator =

3*6 = 18

Place the numerator and denominator together =

18/18

Simplify the answer =

18/18 = 1

Hope this helped,
