True or false: any nonzero integers, the product and the quotient have the same sign. Why?

Sagot :

False. This is because no matter what the number is, the properties of multiplication and division stay the same. So, if one odd and even number multiply/divide, then the answer will be negative. But, if two numbers of the same sign (both either negative or positive) are divided/multiplied, they will both be positive. Therefore, the result is not always the same sign as the starting integers

Hope this helped! :D
