Cassie's Math Booklet Scribepost

1) Examine this pattern

(-20) ÷ (-5) = +4
(-15) ÷ (-5) = +3
(-10) ÷ (-5) = +2
(-5) ÷ (-5) = +1
÷ (-5) = 0
(+5) ÷ (-5) = -1
(+1-) ÷ (-5) = -2

a) use integer chips to complete the first four lines. Describe the pattern.
Each answer is one less than the answer before it.

b) Extend the pattern to determine the quotient (10) ÷ (-5)
(-2)


2) Penelope gets a pay cheque of $750 every two weeks. If she works from Monday to Friday, how much is earned each day? Use the division of two integers to represent this situation, then solve.

(+750) ÷ (+10) = $75


3) Kellie played four games of hockey this weekend. She was on the ice when her opponents scored 20 goals. Her stats receive a -1 each time. What are her stats for each game this weekend?

(-20) ÷ (+4) = -5
