Multiply both sides by w, divide both sides by -8, and then simplify the fraction to get w = -3/4.

It appears that half of your responders think the 6 is actually -6 and the answer is 3/4.
The other half think that the 6 is just a 6 and the answer is -3/4.
Only you know for sure whether it is 6 or -6. Once you decide, you can select the correct answer (either 3/4 or -3/4).

6 / (M/N) = - 8 it is mean 6 x (N/M) = - 8 so (N/M) = (- 4/3)

-6/w=-8 multiply by w
-6=-8w divide by -8
-6/(-8)=w
w=3/4

-6/w=-8
Because the product of the means equals the product of the extremes:
-8w=-6
---- ----
-8 -8
w=3/4
