To calculate the quotient of \(-7 \div (-3)\):

  1. Divide the numbers: \[ \frac{-7}{-3} = \frac{7}{3} \]

  2. Since both numbers are negative, the quotient is positive.

Thus, the quotient is \( \frac{7}{3} \) or in mixed number form, \( 2 \frac{1}{3} \).

The correct response is: 2 Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction.
