Step-by-step explanation:
Quotient means 'the answer after dividing'.
If you get really stuck this is one (bit long) way of dealing with it.
Firstly lets for the moment forget about the negative and just deal with
-96÷12
Write as 96 12
Notice that both numbers are even so we can divide by 2
96÷2=48
12÷2=6
Again they are both even
48÷2=24
6÷2=3
The two digits of 24 are such that
2+4=6
and 6 is exactly divisible by 3 so 24 is also exactly divisible by 3. So now we can do this:
24÷3=8
3÷3=1
Now we put the negative back in giving −8
