Answer 1

To determine which of the fractions does not have the same value as the others, let's evaluate each one:

1. −3/7: This is negative three-sevenths.
2. 3/−7: This is three divided by negative seven, which is also negative three-sevenths.
3. −3/7: This is again negative three-sevenths (same as the first).
4. −3/−7: This is negative three divided by negative seven, which is positive three-sevenths.

Now, summarizing the values:

• −3/7 = -3/7
• 3/−7 = -3/7
• −3/7 = -3/7
• −3/−7 = 3/7

Therefore, the one that does not have the same value as the others is −3/−7, because it equals 3/7 (positive) while the others are all −3/7 (negative).
