Question

What is the quotient of 6 and -1/2

Answer 1

Quotient means divide, meaning we'll divide 6 by -1/2.
$6 \div - \frac{1}{2}$
When dealing with fraction division, we flip the fraction in the second place and then change the problem to multiplication.
$6 \cdot - \frac{2}{1}$
Anything over 1 is just itself, so -2/1 becomes -2.
$6 \cdot -2$
Finally, we multiply 6 and -2.
$6 \cdot -2 = -12$
So the quotient of 6 and -1/2 is -12.

Answer 2

The answer is -12 hope this helps
