Let's perform the divisions step by step for each of the given operations:
1. [tex]\((+12) \div (+2)\)[/tex]:
- When we divide a positive number by another positive number, the result is also positive.
- Dividing 12 by 2, we get:
[tex]\[
\frac{12}{2} = 6
\][/tex]
- Therefore, [tex]\((+12) \div (+2) = 6.0\)[/tex].
2. [tex]\((+40) \div (-8)\)[/tex]:
- When we divide a positive number by a negative number, the result is negative.
- Dividing 40 by -8, we get:
[tex]\[
\frac{40}{-8} = -5
\][/tex]
- Therefore, [tex]\((+40) \div (-8) = -5.0\)[/tex].
3. [tex]\((-60) \div (+6)\)[/tex]:
- When we divide a negative number by a positive number, the result is negative.
- Dividing -60 by 6, we get:
[tex]\[
\frac{-60}{6} = -10
\][/tex]
- Therefore, [tex]\((-60) \div (+6) = -10.0\)[/tex].
So, the results of the given divisions are:
[tex]\[
6.0, -5.0, -10.0
\][/tex]
