16 = n/ -21
multiply both sides by -21
( -21)(16) =(n/ -21)(-21)
-336 = n

cross multiply. whatever 16*21 is (can't find a calculator or scratch sheet) the answer is negative (a negative times a positive is negative - on the other side you're left with N.
-(16*21) = n

You don't seem to know much about pre-algebra. :(
Last time I will help YOU with your homework:
16 = n/-21
Multiply each side by -21.
16 * -21 = -336

You can rewrite
16 = n/ -21
as
16 * -21 = n

16*(-21)=n
