QuestionCalculate the quotient of $\frac{4}{12}$ divided by $\frac{-5}{36}$. What is the result? $\frac{4}{12} \div\left(\frac{-5}{36}\right)=\square$

Studdy Solution
Further simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is12.
$$-\frac{144}{60} = -\frac{144 \div12}{60 \div12} = -\frac{12}{5}$$So, the quotient of $\frac{4}{12} \div \frac{-5}{36}$ is $-\frac{12}{5}$.
