To determine the sign of a quotient without calculating, follow the rules:
1. When dividing two positive numbers, the quotient will be positive.
2. When dividing a positive number by a negative number, the quotient will be negative.
3. When dividing two negative numbers, the quotient will be positive.
Based on these rules, we can determine that the following quotients will be positive:
- 657 ÷ (-23)
- 1,001 ÷ (-143)
