Understand that integers can be divided, provided that the divisor is not zero, and every quotient of integers (with non-zero divisor) I'd say rational number. If p and q are integers, then -(p/a) = (-p)/q = p/(-q). Interpret quotients of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts. ​

Sagot :

Given that p and q are integers,

then find out -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q)

with real world example.

First of all we have know about Integers

a whole number, a number that is not a fraction.

and secondly Rational numbers

A rational number is any number that can be expressed in the form p/q where 'q' is not equal to zero. The quotient of the rational number p/q is nothing but the result that we get when we divide 'p' by 'q'.

For real world contexts we put some value at the place of p and q.

let p=1

q=2

-(1/2) = (-1/2) =(1/-2)

by evaluate it we get ...

-1/2=-1/2=-1/2

Rules for Negative rational numbers

  • If the rational number takes the form -(p/q), then either p or q takes the negative value. It means that -(p/q) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).
  • If numerator and denominator are of opposite signs.
  • All are less than 0.

Hence  If p and q are integers, then -(p/a) = (-p)/q = p/(-q).
