If i wrote ''the quotient of an integer divided by an integer with an opposite sign takes the sign of the greater absolute value'' what is the error?

Well, friend, it seems like there might be a small misunderstanding here. The quotient of two integers with different signs actually takes the sign of the number with the greater absolute value, not the opposite sign. It's all about finding balance and harmony in mathematics, just like creating a beautiful painting.
