Q. Divide.\newlineWrite your answer in simplest form.\newline14÷(79)=? -\frac{1}{4} \div\left(-\frac{7}{9}\right)=?
  1. Reciprocal Multiplication: First, remember that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.\newlineSo, we need to multiply 14-\frac{1}{4} by the reciprocal of 79-\frac{7}{9}, which is 97-\frac{9}{7}.\newlineCalculation: 14×97-\frac{1}{4} \times -\frac{9}{7}
  2. Numerical Calculation: Now, multiply the numerators and the denominators separately.\newline1×9=9-1 \times -9 = 9 (for the numerators)\newline4×7=284 \times 7 = 28 (for the denominators)\newlineSo, we get 928\frac{9}{28}.
  3. Simplification Check: Check if 928\frac{9}{28} can be simplified.\newlineBoth 99 and 2828 don't have any common factors other than 11, so it's already in simplest form.
