Answer 1

The quotient for the given division problem is -6 and the remainder is -9.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We have to divide -123 by 19 and give the quotient and the remainder.

The solving is shown below:

`-123/ 19 = \displaystyle(-123)/(19)\\\\=-123 = 19* (-6) + (-9)`

`\text{Comparing with:}\\\bold{ Dividend = (Divisor}*\bold{ Quotient) + Remainder }\\\text{quotient} = -6\\\text{Remainder} = -9`

Hence, the quotient for the given division problem is -6 and the remainder is -9.
