Answer 2

The answer is -1.944

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-85/9 ÷ 34/7​

To find:

Divide the expression

Solution:

We can solve this expression in two ways

(a) Firstly, by simplifying both the terms and then dividing them

It will be as

$\frac{-\frac{85}{9} }{\frac{34}{7} }$

Dividing and simplifying the terms

∴ $\frac{-9.444}{4.857}$

Now dividing these two terms we get

= $-1.944$

(b) The second way is to use the reciprocal of the second term and multiply it as

$\frac{-\frac{85}{9} }{\frac{34}{7} }$

As we bring the denominator 34/7 up it will be reciprocated and multiplied by the numerator -85/9.

∴ $-\frac{85}{9} X \frac{7}{34}$

∴ $-\frac{595}{306}$

= $-1.944$

Both the ways give the same answer and are acceptable

Thus, -85/9 ÷ 34/7​ = -1.944
