If both the numerator and the denominator are negative does that make the fraction negative?

No!If numerator and denominator have the same signs the fraction is positive.If numerator and denominator have opposite signs the fraction is negative.


How do you create negative quotients?

Make sure that the numerator and denominator have different signs.


Does y vary directly with x in the equation y equals 5x?

Yes, this is an example of direct variation.A:This is a direct variation because both are in the numerator of a fraction and on opposite sides of the = sign. If they are both on the same side of the equals sign, then one would have to be in the numerator and the other in the denominator for them to be a direct variation.


Why do you multiply fractions by its recipical?

You don't. If you are dividing fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal. For example, 2/3 times 6/11 is 2/3 * 6/11 = 4/11. But, 2/3 divided by 6/11 is 2/3 * 11/6 = 11/9 or 1 2/9. The reason you do this is because the numerator is being multiplied and a denominator is being divided. When you divide, you are doing the opposite of multiplying so you flip the fraction, which is an opposite operation then you can multiply, which is the opposite of dividing.


What happends when a numarator in a fraction gets bigger?

When the numerator gets bigger, the fraction gets bigger; that is, it has a greater value The opposite is true if the denominator gets bigger; in this case the the fraction gets smaller; that is, it has a lesser value
