Final answer:

The quotient of 7^(-2) is 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of 7-2 is 49.

When dividing, a negative exponent can be rewritten as the reciprocal of the positive exponent. In this case, 7-2 can be rewritten as 1/72. Dividing 1 by 72 gives us 1/49, which is equal to 49 as a whole number.
