    Answer:

    Let the number be x .

    According to the question:

    x \times \frac{ - 1}{4} = \frac{ - 23}{9} \\ \\ \: \implies x = \frac{ - 23}{9} \div \frac{ - 1}{4} \\ \\ \implies \: x = \frac{ - 23}{9} \times \frac{ - 4}{1}

    \implies \: x = \frac{ - 23 \times ( - 4)}{9} \\ \\ \implies \: x = \frac{92}{9} \\ \\

    Hence, the number which which should be multiplied by -¼ so that the product may be -23/9 is 92/9
