<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

The long way to do this is to multiply all the fractions out by hand, or use a calculator to make shorter work of this.

The shortest way is to simply count how many negative signs each expression has.

The rule is: if there are an even number of negative signs, then the product will be positive. Otherwise, the product is negative.

For choice A, we have 3 negative signs. The result (whatever number it is) is negative. Choice B is a similar story. Choice C is also negative because we have 1 negative sign. Choices A through C have an odd number of negative signs.

Only choice D has an even number of negative signs. The two negatives multiply to cancel to a positive. The negative is like undoing the positive. So two negatives just undo each other. This is why the multiplied version of choice D will be some positive number.

Or you can think of it as opposites. If you are looking up (positive direction) and say "do the opposite" then you must look down (negative direction). Then if you say "do the opposite", then you must look back up in the positive direction.

The sum of two numbers is odd. Can the quotient of the two numbers be an odd number?
Natalka [10]

Answer: No.

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess that here we have the statement:

If the sum of two numbers is odd----> can their quotient be an odd number?

first, for n an integer number, we have that:

an odd number can be written as 2n + 1

an even number can be written as 2n.

The sum of two numbers is only odd if one of them is odd and the other even.

Then we have a number that is 2n and other that is 2k + 1, for n and k integer numbers.

Now, let's see if the quotient can also be an odd number.

One way to think this is:

There is an odd number such that when we multiply it by another odd number, the result is an even number?

no, and i can prove it as:

let 2k + 1 be an odd number, and 2j + 1 other.

the product is:

(2k + 1)*(2j + 1) = 2*(2*k*j + k + j) + 1

and as k and j are integers, also does 2*k*j + k + j, so:

2*(2*k*j + k + j) + 1 is an odd number.

This says that the product of two odd numbers is always odd, then we never can have that the quotient between an even number and an odd number is odd.
