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).
