Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{5}{11}$ is the required answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Given , divide -1 by the reciprocal of $\frac{5}{-11}$.

Before we find the value first we know what is Reciprocal.

Reciprocal - The definition of reciprocal in mathematics is the inverse of a value or a number. If n is a real number, then $\frac{1}{n}$ will be n's reciprocal.

So, the reciprocal of $\frac{5}{-11}$ is $\frac{-11}{5}$.

Step 1:

We have reciprocal of $\frac{5}{-11}$ is $\frac{-11}{5}$

Now, from the question divide -1 by the reciprocal of $\frac{5}{-11}$.

⇒ $\frac{-1}{\frac{-11}{5} }$ = $\frac{-5}{-11}$ = $\frac{5}{11}$

[Where , negative sign are cancel out ]

Final answer:

Hence, $\frac{5}{11}$ is the required value .
