16 divid (-4)+(-5)
I am complete stumped on this can some one explain how to get the answeres or just me an example how the problem is worked
First divide the 16 by 4, then change the sign (because of the - in the denominator). Next, add -5
To solve the expression 16 ÷ (-4) + (-5), you need to follow the order of operations which is also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction) in math.
Step 1: Divide 16 by -4.
16 ÷ (-4) = -4
Step 2: Change the sign of -4 because of the negative sign in the denominator.
-4 becomes +4
Step 3: Add -5 to the result from Step 2.
+4 + (-5) = -1
Therefore, the answer to the expression 16 ÷ (-4) + (-5) is -1.
