Rewrite the number without radicals or exponents.
-(-125/27) to the -4/3
-----------------------
Assuming the 1st minus sign is outside the exponent operation:
= -%28-125%2F27%29%5E%28-4%2F3%29
= -%28-5%2F3%29%5E%28-4%29 Cube root of -125 is -5, of 27 is 3
= -1%2F%28-5%2F3%29%5E4
= -1/(625/81)
= -81/625
