The answer is [tex]- \frac{1}{10} [/tex]
To figure this out, convert both numbers to fractions. 1.03 = 1[tex]\frac{3}{100} [/tex] and (-10.3) = -10[tex] \frac{3}{10} [/tex]. Now, convert to improper fractions.
1[tex] \frac{3}{100} = [tex] \frac{103}{100} [/tex]
-10[tex] \frac{3}{10} [/tex] = [tex]- \frac{103}{10} [/tex]
Now, divide. Dividing fractions is the same as multiplying by the reciporical. So:
[tex] -\frac{103}{10} \ becomes\ \frac{10}{103} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{103}{100} *- \frac{10}{103} = -\frac{1030}{10300} = - \frac{1}{10} [/tex]
