Could you show me the process of simplifying this fraction?
- 13/18 divided by 20/27
-----
[-13/18] / [20/27]
-----
Multiply numerator and denominator by 27/20
-----
= [-13/18]
----------------------------------
= [-13*27]/[18*20]
-----
Divide the numerator and the denominator by 9 to get:
-----
= [-13*3]/[2*20]
-----
= -39/40
