Question

Select Correct or Incorrect for each equation. Equation Correct Incorrect

Answer 1

Answer:

1st equation:

$\frac{-1+1}{-1} = 0$

Simplify the numerator

$-1 + 1 = 0$

$\frac{0}{-1} = 0$

(zero divided by any number (other than zero) is zero)

1st equation is correct

2nd equation:

$\frac{-1}{1} = -1$

This is because a negative number divided by a positive number is a negative number.

So, $\frac{-1}{1} = 0$ is incorrect.

2nd equation is incorrect
