Answer:
99/100 = 0
It is tempting to think that the answer must be 1, but it is not. 100 goes into 99 zero times, so that is the result.
99/100 = 0

The normal rules of arithmetic are used to determine the sign of the result of division:
| +num/+div == +result | -num/+div == -result | +num/-div == -result | -num/-div == +result |
It is easiest to first calculate the result as if num and div were positive, then apply the above rules. For example:
| 17/5 == 3 | -17/5 == -3 | 17/-5 == -3 | -17/ -5 == 3 |
