  1. Identify story: Identify the correct story for using the quotient 15÷3-15 \div -3.
  2. Analyzing choice (A): Analyze choice (A): If Victoria sees no green signs and 1515 white signs, each worth 3-3 points, her score calculation would be 0+(15×3)=450 + (15 \times -3) = -45.
  3. Analyzing choice (B): Analyze choice (B): If Victoria ends with a score of 15-15 and each white sign is worth 3-3 points, the calculation to find the number of white signs she sees is 15÷3-15 \div -3.
