−86477 is an irreducible fraction.

Explanation:

You cannot simplify the fraction any further than this-- unless they want you to put it into decimal or mixed fraction form. Then, you could rewrite it as −11.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯220779 or −111777 respectively.

Wolfram-Alpha is a good website for this kind of thing; I use it to double-check my work and make sure that I've fully simplified expressions.
