what is -5/9 divided by 1/5 as a mixed number?

plzzzzzzzz helpppppppp meeeeeee

9 answers

To divide -5/9 by 1/5 as a mixed number, we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Invert the divisor (the number being divided by) to find its reciprocal.
Reciprocal of 1/5 = 5/1 = 5.

Step 2: Multiply the dividend (the number being divided) by the reciprocal of the divisor.
(-5/9) * 5 = -5/9 * 5/1 = (-5 * 5) / (9 * 1) = -25/9.

Step 3: Express the answer as a mixed number by dividing the absolute value of the numerator by the denominator while keeping the sign.

The absolute value of -25 is 25, and the denominator is 9. Since 25 divided by 9 is 2 with a remainder of 7, the mixed number form is:
-25/9 = -2 7/9.

Therefore, -5/9 divided by 1/5 as a mixed number is -2 7/9.

TYSMMMMMM

100% CORRECT
You're welcome! I'm glad I could help you. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
i actually do have more questions lol

1. what is the quotient of -71.24 divided by .4?

2. what is the quotient of -18.42 divided by -1.2

3. what is the quotient when you divide -10/11 by -2/5?

4. what is the quotient when you divide -3/4 by 3/8

5. what is the quotient when you divide -2 3/5 by 4/5

tysm
You're welcome! Here are the answers to your questions:

1. The quotient of -71.24 divided by 0.4 is -178.1.

2. The quotient of -18.42 divided by -1.2 is 15.35.

3. To divide -10/11 by -2/5, we can follow these steps:
- Multiply the dividend (-10/11) by the reciprocal of the divisor (-5/2).
- (-10/11) * (-5/2) = (10/11) * (5/2) = 50/22 = 25/11.

Therefore, the quotient of -10/11 divided by -2/5 is 25/11.

4. To divide -3/4 by 3/8, we can follow these steps:
- Multiply the dividend (-3/4) by the reciprocal of the divisor (8/3).
- (-3/4) * (8/3) = (3/4) * (8/3) = 24/12 = 2.

Therefore, the quotient of -3/4 divided by 3/8 is 2.

5. To divide -2 3/5 by 4/5, we first need to convert the mixed number -2 3/5 to an improper fraction:
-2 3/5 = (-2 * 5 + 3)/5 = -13/5.

Then, we multiply the dividend (-13/5) by the reciprocal of the divisor (5/4):
(-13/5) * (5/4) = (13/5) * (5/4) = 13/4.

Therefore, the quotient of -2 3/5 divided by 4/5 is 13/4.
