By what number should (-240) be divided to obtain 16?

$\Large \fbox \red {Answer \: :}$

$\implies$ Let the number be x.

(-240) ÷ x = 16

-240/x = 16

x = - 240/16

x = - 15

$\therefore$ (-240) should be divided by (-15) to get 16.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let x should be divided by (-240) to obtain -16

x/-240= 16

x = (-240) ×-16

x= 3840

3840÷240= 16

Verification

3840÷240= 16

16=16

so our verification is correct.
