Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\textbf{The formula for converting a mixed}\\\huge\textbf{fraction to improper fraction is:}`

`\mathbf{Original\ equation: a (b)/(c)}`

`\mathbf{Convert\ to: (a* c + b)/(c)}`

`\mathbf{Simplifying\ it: (ac + b)/(c)}`

`\mathbf{Results\ to: (acb)/(c)}`

`\huge\textbf{Now that we have a(n) easier way}\\\huge\textbf{into solving for the given equation.}`

`\huge\textbf{Let's begin now!}`

`\mathbf{-4 (2)/(5)}`

`\mathbf{= (-4*5 + 2)/(5)}`

`\mathbf{= (-20 + 2)/(5)}`

`\mathbf{= (-20 - 2)/(5)}`

`\mathbf{= (-22)/(5)}`

`\mathbf{= -(22)/(5)}`

`\huge\textbf{Found the result to the equation}\huge\boxed{\bf\downarrow}`

`\huge\text{Thus, your answer should be: \boxed{\mathsf{Option\ C. \ -(22)/(5)}}}\huge\checkmark`
