Q10. - Algebra 1

Question

Find each product or quotient.

$-81÷(-3)$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The quotient of the expression is 27.

Step 1. Apply quotient rule.

The quotient of two integers with the same sign is always positive.

The quotient of two integers with opposite signs is always negative.

Step 2. For example.

If –x is divided by –y then their quotient will be $\frac{x}{y}$.

Step 3. Evaluate the quotient.

$\begin{array}{l}=\frac{-81}{-3}\\ =27\end{array}$

Therefore, the quotient of the given expression is 27.
