Solve Division Problem: (-118) ÷ (-1) Step by Step

Firstly we need to realise that since we are dividing two negative numbers, the result must be a positive number.

Let's rewrite the exercise in the form of a simple fraction:

$\frac{118}{1}=$

Remember the rule:

$\frac{x}{1}=x$

Any number we divide by 1 will be equal to itself, therefore:

$\frac{118}{1}=118$
