\r\n" );
document.write( "-5/12 is a negative divided by a positive which is a negative number\r\n" );
document.write( "and when we divide it using a calculator we get -0.4166666667\r\n" );

document.write( "Look at A. 5/-12 is a positive divided by a negative which is also\r\n" );
document.write( "a negative and when we divide it using a calculator we also get\r\n" );
document.write( "-0.4166666667.  So A is equivalent to -5/12\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Look at B. 5 divided by -12 is the same as A just written in words.\r\n" );
document.write( "So B is also equivalent to -5/12\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Look at C. 0.416 is not equivalent to -0.4166666667.  So it isn't\r\n" );
