To solve \( 56 \div (-4) \div (-2) \), we can break it down step by step.

  1. First, calculate \( 56 \div (-4) \): \[ 56 \div (-4) = -14 \]

  2. Now take that result and divide by \(-2\): \[ -14 \div (-2) = 7 \]

Thus, the final answer is \( 7 \).

So the quotient when you divide \( 56 \div (-4) \div (-2) \) is \( 7 \).
