Solution Steps

Subtract 7 from 2 to get -5.

$$\frac{-4}{-5}=3-5\times \frac{1}{2}$$

Fraction \frac{-4}{-5} can be simplified to \frac{4}{5} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$\frac{4}{5}=3-5\times \frac{1}{2}$$

Multiply 5 and \frac{1}{2} to get \frac{5}{2}.

$$\frac{4}{5}=3-\frac{5}{2}$$

Convert 3 to fraction \frac{6}{2}.

$$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{6}{2}-\frac{5}{2}$$

Since \frac{6}{2} and \frac{5}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{6-5}{2}$$

Subtract 5 from 6 to get 1.

$$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{2}$$

Least common multiple of 5 and 2 is 10. Convert \frac{4}{5} and \frac{1}{2} to fractions with denominator 10.

$$\frac{8}{10}=\frac{5}{10}$$

Compare \frac{8}{10} and \frac{5}{10}.

$$\text{false}$$
