  1. -2/9


  2. yep they are all right

  3. LCD = 7

    Divide by 7

    -14/7 / 63/7

    -2/9

    =)

  4. -14/63 (-14 and 63 share a common factor of 7)

    (-14/7) / (63/7)

    -2/9 <===

  5. Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 7.

    -2/9

  6. Notice that:

    14 = (2)(7)

    63 = (7)(9)

    Therefore, write your fraction like this:

    -14/63

    = [-(2)(7)]/[(7)(9)]

    = -2/9; because the 7's cancel out.

    Hope this helps!
