William Sydney Porter tried to perform the calculation $\frac{-3+4i}{1+2i}$. However, he accidentally missed the minus sign, finding $\frac{3+4i}{1+2i}=\frac{11}{5}-\frac{2}{5}i$. 

What answer should he have obtained?

\(\frac{-3+4i}{1+2i} \cdot \frac{1-2i}{1-2i} = \frac{-3+4i+6i-8i^2}{5} = \boxed{\frac{11+10i}{5}}\)
