Correct Answer

(1) 0 ÷ (−5),Quotient = 0
(2) −5 ÷ 0,Undefined
(3) 0 ÷ (−17),Quotient = 0
(4) −23 ÷ 0,Undefined
(5) 0 ÷ 100,Quotient = 0
(6) −1 ÷ 0,Undefined

Explanation

Rule 1 — Quotient = 0: When 0 is the dividend (being divided), the result is always 0: \(0 \div (-5) = 0\), \(0 \div (-17) = 0\), \(0 \div 100 = 0\).

Rule 2 — Undefined: When 0 is the divisor, there is no quotient: \(-5 \div 0\), \(-23 \div 0\), \(-1 \div 0\) are all undefined.
