Open in App
Solution

Step 1: Solve both brackets separately

[(-6)+5]=[-1] and

[(-2)+1]=[-1]

Step 2: Perform the division process

We know that

When we divide a negative integer by a negative integer, first we simplify the signs and put a positive sign(+) and then we divide them as whole numbers.

[-1]÷[-1]=-1-1=11=1

Hence, the result is 1.
