The negative symbol applies to the result of the fraction division. It is equivalent to the multiplication of the fraction by -1. If you want, you can consider the negative in either the numerator or the denominator but not in both.

All negatives must be included in your final answer: ie. if the question asks for the whole number portion, numerator, or denominator of the answer and it has a negative, you must include that negative.
