You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For a) to be equals then 4 * 30 AND 5 * 30 would have to equal 120/150 which it does.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b) 5 goes into -6, -1 times remainder -1/5, 6 goes into -7, -1 times remainder -1/6 OR -6/5 = -1&1/5 OR -1.20 -7/6 = -1&1/6 OR -1.1666667\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So -6/5 < -7/6 (-7/6 is nearer to zero)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c) yes this is equals because a negative number divided by positive number is always negative and vice versa.\r
