Answer:

-2 1/2

Explanation:

The first thing to do here is turn 8 3/4 and -3 1/2 into fractions(we will convert to mixed number at the end). So you get: 35/4 and -7/2.

That gives you (35/4)/(-7/2).

Then you use keep change flip to simplify this.

(35/4) * -2/7 = 2.5

2.5 as a mixed number is:

-2 1/2
