That would depend...
-4 / -2 = 2........4 / 2 = 2 <== if the signs are the same
but
4 / -2 = -2.......-4 / 2 = -2 <== if the signs are different
So basically, if the signs are the same, the result is positive and if the signs are different, the result is negative

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a number.
The statement can be interpreted as:
- 5 is subtracted <u>from</u> a number : x - 5
- A number is greater than 6 : x > 6
- When 5 is subtracted <u>from</u> 3 times a number, the result is greater than 6 : 3x - 5 > 6
And then we simplify 3x - 5 > 6:
- 3x - 5 > 6
- 3x > 11
- x > 11/3
- x > 3.666...
To get the smallest whole number satisfying the inequality above, we can take the "ceiling" of 3.66 which is 4.
Note:
The ceiling of a number is the nearest integer (or in this case, nearest whole number) of a number. It can be denoted by ceil(x).
For example, the ceiling of 0.1 is 1. The ceiling of 5 is 5 since 5 itself is a integer.
