Question

Solve.(1 pt for work shown, 1 pt for correct answer).
−525 ÷ (−125)

Answer 1

when you divide a negative bumber with a negative the result will be positive :
-525 ÷ (-125) = 4.2

Answer 2

-525 ÷ (-125) = 4.2
(positive because negative divided by negative = positive)

-125 goes into -525 four times
the remainder is 25, and when the 0 comes down, its 250
125 goes into 250 two times.
