To solve this expression, we can apply the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing.
First, let's simplify the expression from left to right using the division property of equality:
(9) ÷ (5/4) = (9) × (4/5) = 36/5
Now, let's continue simplifying the expression by multiplying the fractions and the number:
(36/5) × (7/9) × (-5) ÷ (7/2)
= (36/5) × (7/9) × (-5) × (2/7)
Next, we can multiply the fractions and the numbers together:
(36/5) × (7/9) × (-5) × (2/7) = (36 × 7 × (-5) × 2) / (5 × 9 × 7) = -40/3
Therefore, (9) ÷ (5/4) × (7/9) × (-5) ÷ (7/2) simplifies to -40/3.
Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve:
(9)÷(5/4)×(7/9)×(−5)÷(7/2)
