  1. 4 / -(2/3) =

    (4/1) / -(2/3)

    and when dividing fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the secong:

    (4/1) x -(3/2) =

    -12 / 2 =

    -6 / 1 =

    -6


  2. Set it up as a long division:

    (4/1) / (-2/3)

    The second number changes to it's reciprocal (flip numerator and denominator):

    (4/1) * (-3/2)

    Multiply straight across:

    -12/2 = -6

  3. -.6666667

  4. You know that with division you can multiply by the reciprocal of the other fraction, so in this case that would be (-2/3) being the secondfraction:

    so in this case:

    (4/1) / (-2/3)>>>>>>>>flip the -2 and the 3 around

    =(4/1) x (-3/2) <<multiply together

    =(4x-3)/ (2)<<<simplify further

    =-12/2<<<simplify further

    =-6<<<ANSWER

    :D:D
