A negative number is an opposite or reversal of a positive number. For example, if a million dollars is a lot of money to have, then it is also true that a million dollars is a lot of money to owe. If you reverse something twice, you return to the original state. So a negative times a negative (or a negative divided by a negative) is a positive. The opposite of the opposite is the original.

What is the quotient of two numbers that are negative?
positive
The quotient of two negative numbers is always?
Positive.
If the quotient of two numbers is positive then both numbers must be positive?
Yes, but not always because the quotient of two negative numbers will be positive as for example -6/-2 = 3
How do you find a quotient of two numbers when both are positive?
If the divisor and the dividend are positive then the quotient will be positive too.
What can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positivenegative and zero?
When the quotient of two integers is positive, either both integers are positive or both negative. When the quotient of two integers is negative, one of the integers is positive and one negative. When the quotient of two integers is zero, the first integer is zero and the second one is anything but zero.
