Answer:

A and B.

Explanation:

So we want to select the fractions that equal -1/7.

Let's go through each of the answer choices.

A)

A is -1/7, the exact same.

A is correct.

B)

B is 1/-7.

We can move the negative to the top.

So, 1/-7 is equivalent to -1/7.

B is also correct.

C)

C is 1/7

There are no negatives whatsoever.

C is not correct.

D)

We have -1/-7.

Again, move the negative to the top. We will have:

-(-1)/7

The two negatives cancel:

=1/7.

So, D is not correct.

Our answers are A and B.
