Full solution

Q. Divide.\newlineWrite your answer in simplest form.\newline12÷(17)=? \frac{1}{2} \div\left(-\frac{1}{7}\right)=?
  1. Rewrite as multiplication: Rewrite the division as multiplication by the reciprocal of the second fraction.\newline(\frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)}) \div (-(\frac{\(1\)}{\(7\)})) = (\frac{\(1\)}{\(2\)}) \times (-(\frac{\(7\)}{\(1\)}))
  2. Multiply numerators and denominators: Multiply the numerators and the denominators.\(\newline(1×7)/(2×1)=7/2(1 \times -7)/(2 \times 1) = -7/2
