Answer 1

Hello there!

Question:-

$( - 12x) ÷ ( - 2)$

This is an algebraic expression.We need to find the result of it.

Solution:-

$\sf \longmapsto (- 12x) \div ( - 2)$

This algebraic expression may be rewritten as:-

$\sf \longmapsto \: \dfrac{ - 12x}{2}$

Cancel the minus (-) sign:-

$\sf \longmapsto \dfrac{ \cancel - 12x}{ \cancel - 2}$

Then,cancel 12 and 2 by 2, 12 ÷ 2 results 6. (Don't cancel x):-

$\sf \longmapsto \: \dfrac{ \cancel {12}x}{ \cancel{2}}$

$\sf \longmapsto6x$

Option A

______________________________________

Henceforth the value of the algebraic expression is:

$\boxed{\boxed{\displaystyle \huge 6x}}$

Option A is correct!
