-884/70 (-884/2)/(70/2) (divide top & bottom by two) -442/35 *check - bottom can only be divided by 1, 5, and 7. *1 won't change anything. *top obviously cannot be divided by 5. *check if top can be divided by 7. 7*60 = 420 442 - 420 = 22 22 is not divisible by 7. Therefore, 442 is not divisible by 7. *Therefore, -442/35 is simplest form.
