negative 2 over negative 3

1 answer

To determine which of the given fractions are equivalent to \(-\frac{2}{3}\), let's evaluate each fraction:

  1. \(-\frac{3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2}\) (not equivalent)
  2. \(\frac{2}{-2} = -1\) (not equivalent)
  3. \(-\frac{3}{2}\) (not equivalent)
  4. \(\frac{2}{-3} = -\frac{2}{3}\) (equivalent)
  5. \(-\frac{2}{-3} = \frac{2}{3}\) (not equivalent)

Based on this evaluation, the only fraction that is equivalent to \(-\frac{2}{3}\) is:

  • \(\frac{2}{-3}\)

Thus, the two fractions that are equivalent to \(-\frac{2}{3}\) are:

  1. \(\frac{2}{-3}\)
  2. (None of the other fractions provided are equivalent.)

Therefore, the final answer is only one equivalent fraction: \(\frac{2}{-3}\).
