#-108-:71#

Explanation:

Here's how I did it :
#-32.4-:21.3# is the same thing as #-32.4/21.3#
Multiply by 10 :

#-(32.4xx10)/(21.3xx10)=-324/213#

Notice that they have a common factor which is 3:

#-324/213=-(108xx3)/(71xx3)#

Simplify and you'll get : #-108/71#

71 and 108 have no common factor so that's the simplest form.
