Negative Fraction Calculator

Formula

To calculate the negative fraction:

\[ \text{Negative Fraction} = -\frac{X}{Y} \text{ or } \frac{X}{-Y} \]

Where:

\(X\) is the numerator
\(Y\) is the denominator

Negative Fraction Definition

Any negative fraction is any fraction multiplied by -1. It's important to note here that only either the numerator or denominator should be negative. This makes the entire value negative. If you make both negative, the fraction itself will turn positive since \(\frac{-1}{-1} = 1\).

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Numerator (\(X\)) = 5
Denominator (\(Y\)) = 10

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Negative Fraction} = -\frac{5}{10} = -0.5 \]

Or:

\[ \text{Negative Fraction} = \frac{5}{-10} = -0.5 \]

The negative fraction is -0.5.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Numerator (\(X\)) = 7
Denominator (\(Y\)) = 14

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Negative Fraction} = -\frac{7}{14} = -0.5 \]

Or:

\[ \text{Negative Fraction} = \frac{7}{-14} = -0.5 \]

The negative fraction is -0.5.
