Answer 1

Answer:

RULE 1: The quotient of a positive integer and a negative integer is negative. RULE 2: The quotient of two positive integers is positive. RULE 3: The quotient of two negative integers is positive. If the signs are different the answer is negative.

Answer 2

The quotient of two positive integers is a positive number​.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient in division:

• The division is the process of repetitive subtraction. The number of times of subtraction is equal to the quotient.

• The division is denoted by a mathematical symbol $($÷$)$ which consists of a short horizontal line with a dot each above and below the line.
• The quotient is the final answer of this division process.

• The following example shows division as a method of grouping objects equally in groups. The box below contains $16$ balls.
• Let us divide them into $4$ equal groups. We can see that there are

Division Integers Rule:

RULE 1: The quotient of a positive integer and a negative integer is

negative.

RULE 2: The quotient of two positive integers is positive.

RULE 3: The quotient of two negative integers is positive.

Examples:

• $\frac{(+9)}{(+9)} =+1$

• $\frac{(+16)}{(+8)}=+2$
