Answer

-18 divided by (-9/-2) = -4

Step-by-step explanation

Noting that the division involving fractions are solved by changing the division sign into multiplication sign and the fraction after the sign changes to its reciprocal or its inverse.

-18 divided by (-9/-2)

In mathematical terms

-18 ÷ (-9/-2)


\begin{gathered} -18/(-9)/(-2) \\ =-18*(-2)/(-9) \\ =(-18*-2)/(-9) \\ =(36)/(-9) \\ =-4 \end{gathered}

Hope this Helps!!!
