Because 2 negatives equal a positive.
So for your question, it’s (-96) divided by (-6). As we know from other years that -
Subtract or negative means taking away or in other words, move closer to 0. Example, 7 - 2 = 5. 5 is closer to zero.
Now look at a number line, when we move closer to the zero, we have to become more positive. This is the reason two negatives = a positive.
This is what I think anyways.
