Question

Find the quotient.22 ÷ (-11) (work shown )​

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

*Remember- negative ×/÷ positive= negative. Negative ×/÷ negative=positive.

Explanation:

22÷ -11 (The parenthesis arn't really necessary)

• Okay, so you are going to ignore the negative and pretend they are both positive.
• Divide like normal- how many times does 11 go into 22? 11×2=22. 2 is your answer.
• Now, is it negative or positive? Look back at the * above. Looking at that, what's your answer? Well, you divided 22 by -11. Negative ÷ positive= negative. Therefore, your answer is -2
