[AI-generated answer — Step-by-Step Bot]

To divide 11 by -4 and write the answer as a mixed number, follow these steps:

Step 1: Divide the absolute values of the numbers.
11 ÷ 4 = 2

Step 2: Determine the sign of the result.
Since one of the numbers is negative, the quotient will be negative as well.

Step 3: Write the result as a mixed number.
The quotient is -2, so the whole number part is -2.
To find the fraction part, subtract the product of the whole number part and the denominator from the numerator:
11 - (-2 * 4) = 11 - (-8) = 11 + 8 = 19

So, the mixed number is -2 19/4 (read as negative two and nineteen-fourths).
