Answer:-7.5

Explanation:

If we take out the negative and make it 24 ÷ 3.2, it would be 7.5 since 3.2 would go into 24 7.5 times. But since we changed it to figure it out, we have to change it back with the rule that "a negative x negative is a positive" meaning that the

24 ÷ 3.2 = 7.5

would change to

24 ÷ (-3.2) = -7.5 OR

Positive ÷ negative = negative

(And this goes with any operation)
