Question

Q.6 By what number should 2/3 be divided to get −4/5.

Answer 1

Let the number be x;

As per the question,

(-33/16)/x = (-11/4)

Which means,

x = (-33/16)/(-11/4)

x = (-33 * 4) / (-11 * 16) … as a/b/c/d = ad/bc

x = 33 * 4/11 * 16

x = (33/11) * (4/16)

x = 3 * 1/4

x = 3/4

Answer 2

Answer:-6/5

Let the no. Be x

2/3 % x = - 4/5

X = - 4/5 *3/2

So we shifted 2/3 to the right side of equal to thus 2 became the denominator and 3 became numerator

X = - 4/5 * 3/2

After solving it

X = - 6/5
