Answer 2

The rational number to divide $\bold{\frac{-33}{8}}$ is $\bold{\frac{3}{4}}$ to obtain $\bold{\frac{-11}{2}}$

"Any number" that can be "expressed" as both fractions and quotient is called rational number. Every integer is called as a rational number, sometimes negative integers are called as irrational numbers too. "Rational number" is a number that cannot be represented as "ratio of two integers" or fractions of a given number.  

Given:

$\frac{-33}{8} \div x=\frac{-11}{2}$

$\begin{array}{c}{\frac{-33}{8} \times \frac{1}{x}=\frac{-11}{2}}\\ \\ {x=\frac{-33}{8} \times-\frac{2}{11}} \\\\ \bold{x=\frac{3}{4}}\end{array}$
