\n" ); document.write( "No; tutor josgarithmetic got it right. Tutor ikleyn's \"correction\" is in error.

\n" ); document.write( "Answer choice c \"A number w divided into negative 3\" is equivalent to -3/w, not w/-3.

\n" ); document.write( "With tutor ikleyn's incorrect reading of the problem, the question can't be answered, because TWO of the answer choices are phrases that do not have the same meaning as \"-3/w\".

\n" ); document.write( "With tutor josgarithmetic's correct reading of the problem, there is only one of the answer choices that does not have the same meaning as \"-3/w\" -- making it possible to answer the question that was asked.

\n" ); document.write( "So the answer to the question that was asked is answer choice a, \"negative 3 times a number w\".
