Note that we are dividing a negative number by a positive number:
Therefore, the exercise is:
Since we have a negative number, it must be less than zero.
Therefore, the answer is:
>
Solve the following exercise:
\( (+6)\cdot(+9)= \)
When dividing by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal! So -412 ÷ (1/3) becomes -412 × 3 = -1236.
The sign rules for division are the same as multiplication: negative ÷ positive = negative. Since -412 is negative and 1/3 is positive, the result must be negative.
After calculating the division result, compare it to zero. Since , the answer is less than (<).
Remember this simple pattern: same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Since we have negative ÷ positive (different signs), the answer is negative.
Only if the numerator is zero. Since -412 ≠ 0, our result cannot equal zero. Any non-zero number divided by another non-zero number gives a non-zero result.
