What is negative 37 divided by negative 14?

Here we will explain and show you how to get the answer to negative 37 divided by negative 14.

When calculating a problem like negative 37 divided by negative 14, you can simply ignore the fact that they are negative numbers and divide 37 by 14 to get the answer. Here is why it is that easy:

In this division problem, negative 37 is the dividend and negative 14 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 37 divided by negative 14 can be written like this:

		-37
		-14

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:

		37
		14

Now that both the dividend and divisor are positive numbers, we can simply divide 37 by 14 as follows:

37 ÷ 14 = 2.64285714285714

Which means that this is the answer to "What is negative 37 divided by negative 14?":

(-37) ÷ (-14) = 2.64285714285714

The above was a roundabout way to show you how to calculate negative 37 divided by negative 14 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.
