Solution

According to convention, we write the denominator as a positive number.
(1) $\frac{5}{- 1}$

$= \frac{- 5}{1}$

(2) $\frac{- 5}{- 1}$

$= \frac{5}{1}$

(3) $\frac{2}{- 9}$

$= \frac{- 2}{9}$

(4) $\frac{- 2}{- 9}$
$= \frac{2}{9}$

(5) $\frac{0}{- 4}$

$= \frac{- 0}{4}$

(6) $\frac{11}{- 8}$

$= \frac{- 11}{8}$
