Why does the product and quotient have the same signfro any two nonzero integers?
That is because that is how the product and quotient are defined.
Why does the quotient and product of two nonzero integers have the same sign?
Those are the rules of multiplication (and division).
Why does any two nonzero integers the product and the quotient have the same sign?
It follows from the definitions of the two operations.
What can you say about the of two integers with the same signs?
-- Their sum and difference both have the same sign that the two integers have. -- Their product and quotient are both positive.
What are the rules for the multiplying and dividing integers?
The product or quotient of two numbers that have the same sign is positive. The product or quotient of two numbers with different signs is negative.
How do you find the product and quotient of two integers?
To find the Quotient and Product of two integers this is how it works if the two numbers are the same sign then it would be a postivite answer but if the two number has different signs the answer would be negative but that is only with muilty and divison
How do you determine the sign of a quotient two integers?
-- If the two integers have the same sign, their quotient is positive. -- If the two integers have different signs, their quotient is negative.
What is the quotient of two integers with the same sing?
The quotient has a positive sing in that case.
What can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positive negative zero?
Their quotient is positive if the integers have the same sign;negative if the integers have different signs;zero if the dividend is zero (and the divisor is not).
Name the rule for dividing integers with different signs?
The value of the quotient of two integers with different signs is the same as if the signs were the same. Because the numbers have different signs, the quotient is negative.
What can you tell about two integers when their quotient is positive negative or zero?
Quotient positive: Both integers have the same sign: both positive or both negative. Quotient zero: The first integer is 0. Quotient negative: The integers have opposite signs: one positive and one negative.
True or false when you divide two integers with the same signs the quotient is never going to be negative?
True. If the equation is (-4)divided by (-8) the quotient will be +2 because 8 divided by 4=2 and the two integers are the same, so it's positive. The same goes for multiplying integers.
Why is the poduct and the quotient of to nonzer integers have the same sign?
Because that is how products and quotients are defined!
What is the meaning of dividing integers?
It is the same thing as dividing whole numbers in order to find a quotient.
If a and b are integers when is the product positive?
When their signs are the same.
What is the product of 3 integers with the same sign?
It is the product of their absolute values with the common sign.
What is the product of two integers with the same sign?
The product of the two numbers is them multiplied together.
How do you multiply three integers if they have the same sign?
The product has the same sign as the numbers.
What number is both rational and irrational?
None. A rational number is a number that can be written as the quotient of two integers where the divisor is not zero. An irrational number is a real number that cannot be written as the quotient of two integers where the divisor is not zero. Any given real number either can or cannot be written as the quotient of two integers. If it can, it is rational. If it cannot, it is irrational. You can't be both at the same time. The square root of -1 is not a real number and it cannot be written as the quotient of two integers, so it is neither rational nor irrational.
What happens when you multiply two integers with the same sign?
You get a product which is positive.
What is the quotient of 2 integers with the same sign?
It would be a positive number. A negative number divided by a negative number would be positive. A positive number divided by a positive number would also be positive. So, the quotient of 2 integers with the same sign will be a positive number, regardless of which sign the two numbers had.
Is the quotient of 5 and -30 an integer or a rational number?
The quotient of 5 and negative 30 is both. Rational numbers and integers include many of the same numbers. Integers are positive and negative counting numbers, but rational numbers include nonrepeating decimals and fractions.
What is the sign of the product when you multiply four integers?
The sign of the product of four integers depends on the signs of the individual integers. There are 4 cases: 1) When all 4 integers share the same sign and all are non-zero (either all are positive or all are negative), the product is positive. 2) When 3 of the 4 integers share the same sign and all are non-zero (3 are positive and 1 is negative; or 3 are negative and 1 is positive), the product is negative. 3) When 2 of the integers are positive non-zero and the other 2 of the integers are negative non-zero, the product is positive. 4) If even one of the integers is zero, the product is zero (no sign - it is neither positive nor negative).
What is the sign of the product of three integers with same sign?
It is their common sign.
