(3 1/2 - 9 3/4) divided by (-2.5)

=>

(3.5 - 9.75) ÷ (-2.5)

= -6.25 ÷ (-2.5)

= 2.5

Answer 2

Answer:

5/2 ≈ 2,5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf (3 \frac{1}{2} - 9 \frac{3}{4}) \div ( - 2.5)$

$\sf = ( \frac{7}{2} - \frac{39}{4} ) \div (- \frac{5}{2} )$

$\sf = ( \frac{7 \times 2}{2 \times 2} - \frac{39}{4} ) \div ( - \frac{5}{2} )$

$\sf = ( \frac{14}{4} - \frac{39}{4} ) \div ( - \frac{5}{2} )$

$\sf = - \frac{25}{4} \div ( - \frac{5}{2} )$

$\sf = \frac{25 \times 2}{4 \times 5}$

$\sf = \frac{50}{20}$

= 5/2 ≈ 2,5

Conclusion:

Answer $\sf (3 \frac{1}{2} - 9 \frac{3}{4}) \div ( - 2.5)$ is 5/2 ≈ 2,5.
