How to solve division of integers?
Division of integers is the reverse process of multiplication of integers. Multiplication is repetitive addition, while division is repetitive subtraction.
The sign of the result depends on the number of negative factors present in the division.
• If the negative factors are even, the product is positive.
• If the negative factors are odd, the product is negative.
Example: Solve –360 ÷ (–3) = ?
Answer:
First ignore all negative factors and perform the division operation.
$\frac{360}{3} \ =120$.
Now count all the negative signs. In the given operation, we have 2 negative signs.
2 is an even number, so the result will be positive.
So, the answer is $\frac{-360}{-3} \ =120$
