Answer 2

Given,

The quotient of a number$\[ = 40\]$

The product of a number$\[ = - 8\]$

Solution,

Formula used, the number is given as $\[\frac{{{\rm{Quotient}}\,{\rm{of}}\,{\rm{a}}\,{\rm{number}}}}{{{\rm{Product}}\,{\rm{of}}\,{\rm{number}}}}.\]$

Therefore, the number is

$\[\begin{array}{l} = \frac{{40}}{{ - 8}}\\ = - 5\end{array}\]$

Hence, the number is $\[ - 5.\]$
