-15 + 6 = -9
-9 - 22 = -31
18.4 - (-3.2) = 21.6
23.1 + (-9.81) = 13.29
-5.6 + (-30.7) = -36.3
11 × (-8) = -88
-15 × (-2) = 30
63 ÷ (-9) = -7
-22 ÷ 11 = -2

Inequalities

11/12 - 3/4 = 1/6.
1/2 + 4/9 = 17/18.
-3/5 + (-1/5) = -4/5.

Multiplication of Decimals

2.4 × (-0.7) = -1.68.
-40.5 ÷ (-8.1) = 5.

Reciprocals

Reciprocal of 4/11 is 11/4.
Reciprocal of -7/3 is -3/7.
2/21 ÷ 1/3 = 2/7.
1/5 < 3/20 = 3/100.
6/25 ÷ (-3/5) = -2/5.

Percentages

20% = 1/5.
7.5% expressed as a fraction is 7 1/2.
18 is 25% of 72.
35 is 17.5% of 200.
24 is 60% of 14.4.
