Question:

Tick (✓) the correct answer

$\frac{4}{9} \div ?=\frac{-8}{15}$

(a) $\frac{-32}{45}$

(b) $\frac{-8}{5}$

(C) $\frac{-9}{10}$

(d) $\frac{-5}{6}$

Solution:

(d) $\frac{-5}{6}$

Let $\frac{4}{9} \div \frac{a}{b}=\frac{-8}{15}$

Now,

$\frac{4}{9} \times \frac{b}{a}=\frac{-8}{15}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{b}{a}=\frac{-8}{15} \times \frac{9}{4}$

$=\frac{-6}{5}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{a}{b}=\frac{5}{-6}$

$=\frac{-5}{6}$

Hence, the missing number is $\frac{-5}{6}$
