30 divided by -3/4
When a number is divided by a fraction, you multiply it by the fraction's reciprocal (flip the numerator and denominator).
So 30/ (-3/4)
= 30 * (-4/3)
Multiply the numerators and denominators.
= (30*-4) / (1*3)
= -120/3
Simplify.
= -40
Another way would be to write -3/4 as the decimal -0.75
Then, divide 30 by -0.75
= -40

Hi Kitty,
I see you have your username back. Andre said he was going to email you a link.
that question you just did you couold have cancelled the 3 with the 30, that may have been a smidge easier. you probably thought of that and it certainly doesn't matter.
It is nice to see you on the forum. It is always nice to see you.
