Solve Mixed Number Division: -7½ ÷ (+1) Step-by-Step

Note that we are dividing a negative number by a positive number, and therefore the result must be a negative number:

$-:+=-$

We will write the exercise in the following way:

$\frac{-7\frac{1}{2}}{1}=$

Let's remember the rule:

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

In other words, any number divided by 1 will be equal to itself.

Therefore, the answer is:

$-7\frac{1}{2}$
