According to the question, we need to multiply 2/11 by the reciprocal of −5/14 ;

The reciprocal of  −5/14 is −14/5 ;

Now,

Moving on with the calculation;

2/11 × −14/5

= [2 × (-14)] ÷ [11 × 5]

= -28/55

Ans) On multiplying 2/11 with the reciprocal of −5/14 ,

We get ,

= −28/55

(A simple calculation; keep in mind that on reciprocating a negative fraction, the minus sign will always remain with the numerator)
