What is the quotient of −5/8÷−2/3?(1 point)
To divide fractions, you need to find the reciprocal of the second fraction and then multiply it with the first fraction.
Reciprocal of -2/3 is -3/2.
So, the quotient of -5/8 ÷ -2/3 is:

Therefore, the quotient is 15/16.
What is the quotient of −5/9÷1/5? Write the answer as a mixed number.(1 point)
To divide fractions, you need to find the reciprocal of the second fraction and then multiply it with the first fraction.
Reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1.
So, the quotient of -5/9 ÷ 1/5 is:
(-5/9) * (5/1).
Multiplying numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:
(-5 * 5) / (9 * 1) = -25/9.
To express the result as a mixed number, divide the numerator (-25) by the denominator (9).
The quotient is -2 and the remainder is -7.
So, the mixed number form of -25/9 is -2 - 7/9.
