Simplify the following:
-(1+3/5)/((-2)/3)
Multiply the numerator of -(1+3/5)/((-2)/3) by the reciprocal of the denominator. -(1+3/5)/((-2)/3) = (-(1+3/5) 3)/(-2):
(-(1+3/5)×3)/(-2)
Put 1+3/5 over the common denominator 5. 1+3/5 = 5/5+3/5:
(-5/5+3/5 3)/(-2)
5/5+3/5 = (5+3)/5:
(-(5+3)/5×3)/(-2)
5+3 = 8:
(-8/5×3)/(-2)
(-(8×3)/5)/(-2) = (-8×3)/(5 (-2)):
(-8×3)/(5 (-2))
The gcd of 8 and -2 is 2, so (-8×3)/(5 (-2)) = (-(2×4) 3)/(5 (2 (-1))) = 2/2×(-4×3)/(5 (-1)) = (-4×3)/(5 (-1)):
(-4×3)/(5×-1)
(-4×3)/(5 (-1)) = (-1)/(-1)×(4×3)/5 = (4×3)/5:
(4×3)/5
4×3 = 12:
Answer: | 12/5
