the answer is C 12

the factor of 84 is 12 and 7

hence

84=-7

84 is too large to cross over to divide -7

so we bring -7 across the equals to (=) sign

doing that

-7 will become +7

84/7=12

since the minus has disappeared because -7 crosses the sign (=) it now +

so our answer is a positive figure

12

Answer: -12

Reason: After doing some multiplication, you know that 12 x 7 is 84. But, since it's a -7, you need a -12 for it to be a positive. So, the answer is -12. Also, 84 divided by a -7 is also -12, I just did it via multiplication.

I hope this helps, and Happy Holidays! :)
