Answer:

Second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

[tex]-\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

In order to find the answer, we will apply the fraction rule.

[tex]\frac{a}{-b} =-\frac{a}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3}{-7} =-\frac{3}{7}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{3}{-7}[/tex]

Not the third or fourth option because negatives do not equal a positive. It's also not option A because....

[tex]-\frac{7}{3} =7\div3=-2\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Your answer is indeed the second option.

Hope this helps.
