You can either convert - 3 into a fraction, or convert - 2/5 into a decimal so you can solve this.
If you decide to convert - 3, into a fraction, it would be - 3/1, and you'd have to multiply that by the reciprocal of - 2/5.
So, you'd have - 3/1 (-5/2) = 15/2, which can be simplified to 7 1/2.
If you decide to convert - 2/5 into a decimal, you would get - 0.4. You would then divide - 3 by - 0.4, which is equal to 7.5.
Both 7.5 and 7 1/2 are correct answers, and if you were to convert 7.5 into a fraction and 7 1/2 into a decimal, you would notice that they are the same number, but in different forms.
