Simplify (-32) ÷ (-4)

2 Answers

9 votes

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Since both of these numbers are negative, it means that the answer will be negative, since 2 negatives make a positive, since now you know that, you can easily do 32/8 which is 4.

-32/ -8 = 4

Check....

-8 * 4 = -32

-32 / 4 = -8

When there is a negative number and a positive number being multiplied or divided by, it will always result in a negative number.

Hope this helped!
