About this worksheet

What students practice

  • Students divide integers with nonzero divisors and express the results as rational numbers.
  • Students identify equivalent placements of a negative sign in a quotient.
  • Students distinguish defined rational quotients from division by zero.

How to use

Have students complete the quotient checks independently, then compare their sign choices. Discuss the final error analysis using the negative-fraction rule.

Curriculum

Common Core standard covered

7.NS.A.2.b

Know integers can be divided when the divisor is not 0, that the result is rational, and that -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).

Weather Station Quotient Checks

Divide signed integers and check how negative signs affect a quotient.

Check the Records

Find each quotient. Use a fraction or mixed number when the answer is not an integer. A rainfall departure is the recorded rainfall minus the expected rainfall.

1.
The station recorded a total temperature change of −21°C across 7 equal time intervals. Find the average signed change per interval.

−21 ÷ 7 =   °C per interval

2.
A rainfall report includes the quotient 36 ÷ (−4). Evaluate it.

36 ÷ (−4) =  

3.
A temperature worksheet includes the quotient (−33)/(−6). Write its value as a fraction or mixed number.

(−33)/(−6) =
