Solve Division Problem: 40 Divided by -2

Remember that we are dividing a positive number by a negative number, so the result must be a negative number.

We will divide both the numerator and the denominator by the highest number that both are divisible by.

In this case, the number is -2

We will divide the fraction as follows:

$\frac{40:-2}{-2:-2}=\frac{-20}{1}=-20$
