simplify ((-a)/b)^{-1}

Solution

simplify

(\frac{- a}{b})^{- 1}

Solution

- \frac{b}{a}

Solution steps

(\frac{- a}{b})^{- 1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- 1} = \frac{1}{a}

(\frac{- a}{b})^{- 1} = \frac{1}{\frac{- a}{b}}

= \frac{1}{\frac{- a}{b}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{\frac{- a}{b}} : - \frac{b}{a}

= - \frac{b}{a}
