To divide fractions, we need to multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor.
The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1.
So, -5/9 ÷ 1/5 is equal to (-5/9) * (5/1) = (-5 * 5) / (9 * 1) = -25/9.
To write this answer as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (-25) by the denominator (9):
-25 ÷ 9 = -2 remainder -7.
Therefore, the answer as a mixed number is -2 7/9.
