a: \(=\left(\dfrac{2}{18}-\dfrac{15}{18}-\dfrac{72}{18}\right):\left(\dfrac{21}{36}-\dfrac{1}{36}-\dfrac{360}{36}\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{-85}{18}:\dfrac{-170}{18}\)
\(=\dfrac{85}{170}=\dfrac{1}{2}\)
b: \(=\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{5}{32}+\dfrac{5}{64}\right):\left(1-\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{8}\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{-55}{192}:\dfrac{3}{8}=\dfrac{-55}{192}\cdot\dfrac{8}{3}=-\dfrac{55}{72}\)
