State whether the statements are True or False.
a ÷ (–b) = – (a ÷ b)
Answer :
Take Left Hand Side of the equation.
Left Hand Side can be written as LHS.
LHS = a ÷ (-b)
We can re-write LHS, by taking the negative sign outside of the bracket. Since,
⇒ LHS = -(a ÷ b) …(i)
Take Right Hand Side of the same equation.
Right Hand Side can be written as RHS.
RHS = -(a ÷ b) …(ii)
Now, compare equations (i) and (ii),
Notice that,
LHS = -(a ÷ b) and RHS = -(a ÷ b)
This clearly means, LHS = RHS
Thus, this is a true statement.
