To simplify this expression, we first need to find a common denominator for both fractions. The common denominator for 4 and -7 is 28 (4*7=28).
Now we can rewrite the expression as:
(-9/4) + (3/-7)
To get rid of the denominators, we can multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction:
((-9)(-7) + (3)(4)) / (4 * -7)
Simplifying further:
(63 + 12) / -28
75 / -28
Finally, we have the simplified expression:
-75/28
negative 9 over positive 4 + 3 over -7

The volume of 10,000 drops of a liquid is 100 fluid ounces.
What is the volume of 10 drops?
What is the volume of 10 drops?
To find the volume of 10 drops, we can set up a proportion using the given information:
Volume of 10,000 drops / Volume of 10 drops = Total volume / Volume of 10 drops
Plugging in the values we know:
100 fluid ounces / 10,000 drops = Total volume / 10 drops
Now we can solve for the total volume:
Total volume = (100 fluid ounces / 10,000 drops) * 10 drops
Simplifying:
Total volume = (100 / 10,000) * 10
Total volume = 0.01 * 10
Total volume = 0.1 fluid ounces
Therefore, the volume of 10 drops would be 0.1 fluid ounces.
Volume of 10,000 drops / Volume of 10 drops = Total volume / Volume of 10 drops
Plugging in the values we know:
100 fluid ounces / 10,000 drops = Total volume / 10 drops
Now we can solve for the total volume:
Total volume = (100 fluid ounces / 10,000 drops) * 10 drops
Simplifying:
Total volume = (100 / 10,000) * 10
Total volume = 0.01 * 10
Total volume = 0.1 fluid ounces
Therefore, the volume of 10 drops would be 0.1 fluid ounces.
