Why is -4 divided by -20 not equivalent to -1divided by 5?
Because -4 / -20 = 1/5 & -1/5 = -1/5 Remember negative divided by negative is a positive number & negative divided by a positive is a negative number.
A negative divided by a postive equals?
negative/positive is equal to a negative think of it like this positive times negative is negative...right? so negative divided by positive is negative or make an example: -20/5 is -4 not 4 good luck...
What is a negative divided by a positive divided by a negative?
The best way to figure this out would be to use an example. So suppose you had a -20 and divided that by a positive 5. That would give you a -4. Take that -4 and divide it by a -2 which would give you a positive 2 (knowing that two negative numbers cancel out to make a positive number). Thus a negative divided by a positive divided by a negative would give you a positive number.
