To find the quotient of \(-18.42 \div -1.2\), you can divide the absolute values first and then consider the signs.

1. Calculate the absolute values: \(18.42 \div 1.2\).
2. Performing the division: \[ 18.42 \div 1.2 = 15.35 \]
3. Since both numbers were negative, the quotient will be positive.

Therefore, the quotient is \(15.35\).

The correct response is 15.35.
