Question #292012

Consider the following statements:

A. The product of 2 numbers of opposite signs will be a negative number

B. The reciprocal of an improper fraction is a proper fraction

C. The reciprocal of 1 is −1.

Which ONE of the following is TRUE?

[1] Both A and B are correct

[2] Only B is correct

[3] Neither A nor C is correct

[4] Only C is correct


Expert's answer

The product of 2 numbers of opposite signs will be a negative number (for example, 2×(-5) = -10). The reciprocal of an improper fraction is a proper fraction (for example, the reciprocal of improper fraction 3/2 is 2/3, which is proper fraction).

So, the correct answer is [1] Both A and B are correct.
