Simplify: (-65/14) ÷ (13/-7) |
Answer» (-65/14) ÷ (13/-7) First we write (13/-7) in standard form = (13×-1)/ (-7×-1) = (-13/7) We have, = (-65/14) × (7/-13) … [∵ reciprocal of (-13/7) is (7/-13)] The product of two rational numbers = (product of their numerator)/ (product of their denominator) = (-65×7) / (14×-13) On simplifying, = (-5×1) / (2×-1) = (-5) / (-2) = (5/2) |
