To solve this expression, we will follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

First, we simplify the multiplication and division from left to right:

9 ÷ (5/4) × (7/9) × (-5) ÷ (7/2)

= 9 ÷ 1.25 × 0.77778 × (-5) ÷ 3.5

= 7.2 × 0.77778 × (-5) ÷ 3.5

Next, we perform the multiplication:

= -2.777464 × (-5) ÷ 3.5

= 13.88732 ÷ 3.5

Finally, we divide:

= 3.9686628571428571428571428571429

Therefore, 9 ÷ (5/4) × (7/9) × (-5) ÷ (7/2) is approximately equal to 3.9687.
