    Your answer is going to be negative, but keep in mind, a fraction is less than 1. A negative fraction is greater than -1.

    In other words 2/-3 is the same as -2/3 and that is greater than -1.5

    To make it easier to get your head around this, make both quantities positive:

    is 2/3 the same as 1.5?

    2/3 is 1/3 less than 1. 1.5 is 1/2 more than 1.

    Not even close to being the same thing.


  • no because -2/3 is a fraction and -1.5 is a whole number with a fraction.


  • no
    2/-3=-.6 repeating


  • No.

    2/3 is .666666666
    2/-3 is -.66666666 which is the same as -2/3, or -(2/3)

    if you meant -3/2 then this is the same as -1.5 which is the same as 3/-2 or -(3/2)


  • Hi,

    No, you aren't right.

    2/3 = 0,6666667...

    the right is -3/2 = -1.5

    ok
