Your result will be $- 18$ $-18$

Explanation:

Replace n by its value and you will have

$\frac{(2 \cdot \frac{1}{4}) - 5}{\frac{1}{4}} = \frac{(\frac{1}{2}) - 5}{\frac{1}{4}}$ $((2*1/4) - 5)/(1/4) = ((1/2) - 5)/(1/4)$

$= \frac{\frac{1 - 10}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}$ $= ((1 - 10)/2)/(1/4)$

$= \frac{- \frac{9}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}$ $=(-9/2)/(1/4)$

$= (- \frac{9}{2}) \cdot (\frac{4}{1})$ $=(-9/2) * (4/1)$

$= - 18$ $= -18$
