To divide -10/11 by -2/5, you need to multiply the dividend (-10/11) by the reciprocal of the divisor (-2/5).
The reciprocal of -2/5 is -5/2, so the division can be rewritten as:
-10/11 รท -2/5 = -10/11 * -5/2
Multiplying the numerators (-10 * -5) and denominators (11 * 2), you get:
= 50/22
This fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
= 25/11
Therefore, the quotient when you divide -10/11 by -2/5 is 25/11.
