Answer:

x/-9 = -16 ; 144

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the variable for "a number". It is being divided by -9, so x must be divided by -9. The number divided by -9 equals -16, so -16 must go on the other side of the equation. To solve, multiply both sides by -9 to cancel out the fraction and isolate the variable.
