(b) $\frac{35}{18}$
(c) $\frac{7}{3}$
(d) $\frac{-7}{3}$

Answer 1

$\begin{array}{l}\\ \left(\text{a}\right)\frac{-35}{18}\\ \\ \begin{array}{l}?=\frac{5}{12}÷\frac{(-3)}{14}\\ =\frac{5}{12}\times \frac{14}{(-3)}\\ =\frac{70}{-36}\\ =\frac{35\times -1}{-18\times -1}\\ ?=\frac{-35}{18}\end{array}\\ \\ \\ \end{array}$
