Alonzo, Alice and Juan again all got different answers when they solve another problem. This time, they were solving:

( − 48 ) ÷ ( − 6 )

Alonzo believes the answer is 8.

Alice believes the answer is -8.

Juan believes the answer is -1/8
Do you agree with any of their answers?

Alonzo is correct

When dividing two negative numbers together they become positive so it’s basically 48 divided by 6
