Key Concepts

Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.

Division of Integers

Division of integers involves determining how many times one integer can be subtracted from another. In this case, dividing -24 by -4 means finding how many times -4 fits into -24. The result of dividing two negative numbers is positive, which is a fundamental rule in arithmetic.

Negative Numbers

Negative numbers are values less than zero, represented with a minus sign. Understanding how to work with negative numbers is crucial in algebra, especially when performing operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The interaction between negative and positive numbers can affect the outcome of calculations significantly.

Simplifying Fractions

Simplifying fractions involves reducing them to their simplest form, where the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than one. In the context of division, the result of -24/-4 can be expressed as a fraction, which can then be simplified to yield a clearer and more concise answer.
