Answer:
-5 ; -3 ; -1.5 ; 0 ; 11 (**Quotient order**) -30/6 ; 21/-7 ; - (-3/-2) ; 0/-20 ; -44/-4 (** Division Problem Order which is the Original Order**)
Explanation:
Here are your division problems:
-30/6 ; 0/-20 ; -44/-4 ; 21/-7 ; - (-3/-2)
First, do the -30 divided by 6
The rule when dividing with a negative and positive is you divide normally but have a negative for your answer.
30 divided by 6 is 5 but carry the negative due to the rule.
First one is -5
Next,
This one is simplistic,
It doesn't matter if it is negative anything divided by 0 is 0
Second one is 0
The next one is -44 divided by -4.
The rule when dividing with negative and negative is they cancel out and become a positive answer.
44 divided by 4 is 11
Third is 11
21 divided by -7 is the same as the first one, divide normally and carry negative.
21 divided by 7 is 3 but carry the negative.
Fourth is -3
Lastly, we need to use the rules once again. the negatives cancel but you still have a negative. This shall be a negative answer.
Here's the twist. 3 can't divide into 2 easily. You need to get a decimal which is fine.
Fifth is -1.5
Now with all of our numbers:
-5, 0, 11, -3, and -1.5 you need to order them from least to greatest.
Rule: The farther you go out with negatives the smaller they are for example like -12.
-5 is first
-3 is second
-1.5 is third
0 is fourth
11 is fifth
-5 ; -3 ; -1.5 ; 0 ; 11 is the quotient order
-30/6 ; 21/-7 ; - (-3/-2) ; 0/-20 ; -44/-4 is the division problem order
