Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are dividing a positive number by a negative number. The division operation is defined as the distribution of a dividend ( $8$ ) evenly over a number of divisors ( $-8$ )

STEP 2

To solve the problem, we simply divide the dividend by the divisor.
$Result = \frac{Dividend}{Divisor}$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the dividend and divisor to calculate the result.
$Result = \frac{8}{-8}$

STEP 4

Calculate the result.
$Result = \frac{8}{-8} = -1$ The result of $8 \div(-8)$ is $-1$ .
