ans=-208÷39

1÷26×1÷x=-8÷39

-8÷39×1÷26 =-208÷39

Answer 2

Answer:

1/26 ÷ -8/39 =  -3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1/26 ÷ -39/8 [multiplicative inverse]
2.  cancel 26 and 39 by division method [ 13 table : 2*13 =26 ; 3*13=39]
3. you will get 1/2 *   -3/8
4. 1*  -3 =   -3 [in numerator]
5. 2*8=16[in denominator]

therefore ans is :    -3/16
