-3 over 4 divded by (- 1 9 over 12)=

Answer 1

To solve this problem, we need to perform the division operation between -3/4 and -1/9 over 12.

Recall that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of a/b is b/a.

So, the first step is to find the reciprocal of -1/9, which is -9/1.

Now, we can rewrite the expression as (-3/4) * (-9/1) over 12.

Next, we can multiply the numerators and denominators separately:

(-3 * -9) / (4 * 1) over 12

This results in:

27 / 4 over 12

To divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

27 / 4 * 1 / 12

Multiplying the numerators and denominators gives:

27 / 48

Finally, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:

9 / 16

Therefore, -3/4 divided by -1/9 over 12 is equal to 9/16.
