simplify 3/(-(1/2)^2)

Solution

simplify

\frac{3}{- ( \frac{1}{2} ) ^{2}}

Solution

- 12

Solution steps

\frac{3}{- ( \frac{1}{2} ) ^{2}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{3}{( \frac{1}{2} ) ^{2}}

(\frac{1}{2})^{2} = \frac{1}{4}

= - \frac{3}{\frac{1}{4}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{\frac{b}{c}} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b}

\frac{3}{\frac{1}{4}} = \frac{3 \cdot 4}{1}

= - \frac{3 \cdot 4}{1}

Cancel

- \frac{3 \cdot 4}{1} : - 12

= - 12
