Question

-300 ÷ (-1.5)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall division rule of negatives

Dividing two negative numbers gives a positive result. So, \(-300 \div (-1.5)\) is equivalent to \(300 \div 1.5\).

Step2: Perform the division

Calculate \(300 \div 1.5\). We can rewrite \(1.5\) as \(\frac{3}{2}\), so dividing by \(\frac{3}{2}\) is the same as multiplying by \(\frac{2}{3}\). Thus, \(300\times\frac{2}{3} = 200\).

Answer:

200
