Answer 1

To find the quotient of \(-7 \div (-3)\), we can start by dividing the numbers:

\[ -7 \div -3 = \frac{-7}{-3} \]

Since both the numerator and denominator are negative, the negatives cancel each other out, giving us:

\[ \frac{7}{3} \]

This can also be expressed as a mixed number, which is:

\[ 2 \frac{1}{3} \]

So the correct answer is:
