D Correct answer
Explanation

Solving the given expression,
$555$  $\displaystyle \times  $ $193 - 555$ $\displaystyle \times  $ $93$
$= 555 \displaystyle \times    (193 - 93)$
$= 555 \displaystyle \times   100 = 55500$

Solve ($-144\displaystyle \div  16$) 

  1. $+9$
  2. $+11$
  3. $-9$
  4. $-11$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

When you divide a negative number by a positive number then the quotient is negative. When you divide a positive number by a negative number then the quotient is also negative. So, in this case,

-144/16 = -9
So option C is the correct answer.

If the dividend and divisor have unlike signs then the quotient will be _____

  1. positive

  2. negative

  3. zero

  4. none

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

If the dividend and divisor have unlike signs then the quotient will be Negative.


Division of Integers is similar to the division of whole numbers (both positive) except the sign of the quotient needs to be determined.

If both the dividend and divisor are positive, the quotient will be positive.
(+16) ÷ (+4) = +4

If both the dividend and divisor are negative, the quotient will be positive.
(-16) ÷ (-4) = +4

If only one of the dividend or divisor is negative, the quotient will be negative.
(+16) ÷ (-4) = -4     or      (-16) ÷ (+4) = -4

In other words, if the signs are the same the quotient will be positive, if they are different, the quotient will be negative
Hence Option B
