Final answer:

The division of -56 by 910 does not match any of the answer choices provided, indicating a potential error in the question or the options given. The correct calculation results in approximately -0.0615, which is not an option listed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate −56 ÷ 910, you should treat it as a division of two numbers: −56 (which is -56) divided by 910. The result of this division gives us one of the options provided.

The division of −56 by 910 is simple once we realize that both numbers can be divided by 2 to simplify the calculation. This gives us:

  • −56 ÷ 2 = −28
  • 910 ÷ 2 = 455

So now, we divide −28 by 455:

−28 ÷ 455 = −0.06153846...

However, this results in a non-terminating decimal which doesn't match any of the four options given. It suggests there might have been a typographical error in the question or the options provided. Assuming that the original division was meant to be −56 ÷ (-910) which would provide a positive result instead of a negative one. When we correctly divide −56 by -910, the answer is roughly -0.0615, which does not match the options given.

Therefore, no correct answer matches the options provided for the given question, and it is likely that there is a mistake in the question itself or the options given. It is important to check the question again to ensure it's accurate.
