To determine

To find: the quotient of $-250÷\left(-25\right)$ .

Answer to Problem 27P

The quotient of numbers is $10$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The expression is $-250÷\left(-25\right)$ .

Calculation:

The quotient of numbers is calculated as follows:

  $\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow -250÷\left(-25\right)\\ \Rightarrow 250÷\left(25\right)\\ \Rightarrow 25\begin{array}{c}\hfill 10\\ \hfill \overline{)\begin{array}{l}250\\ \underset{\_}{25}\\ \underset{\_}{\begin{array}{l}000\\ 0\end{array}}\\ 000\end{array}}\end{array}\end{array}$

Thus, the quotient of numbers is $10$ .
