What is negative 25 divided by negative 22?

Here we will explain and show you how to get the answer to negative 25 divided by negative 22.

When calculating a problem like negative 25 divided by negative 22, you can simply ignore the fact that they are negative numbers and divide 25 by 22 to get the answer. Here is why it is that easy:

In this division problem, negative 25 is the dividend and negative 22 is the divisor. Furthermore, the dividend is the same as the numerator of a fraction and the divisor is the same as the denominator of a fraction. Thus, negative 25 divided by negative 22 can be written like this:

		-25
		-22

Since both the numerator and the denominator have a minus (-), they even each other out and the minus signs can be removed. Then we are left with this:

		25
		22

Now that both the dividend and divisor are positive numbers, we can simply divide 25 by 22 as follows:

25 ÷ 22 = 1.13636363636364

Which means that this is the answer to "What is negative 25 divided by negative 22?":

(-25) ÷ (-22) = 1.13636363636364

The above was a roundabout way to show you how to calculate negative 25 divided by negative 22 in order to illustrate why you can ignore the fact that both numbers are negative.

In the future, just remember that dividing negative numbers gives the same answer as dividing the positive counterparts (additive inverse) of those same two numbers.
