Answer:
Hey mate!
The answer is a) on the left side of 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
The additive inverse of a positive rational number is always negative and if a positive rational number is multiplied with its additive inverse, the product of a positive and a negative rational number is always a negative rational number.
Similarly,
The additive inverse of a negative rational number is always positive and if a negative rational number is multiplied with its additive inverse, the product of a positive and a negative rational number is always a negative rational number.
Since all negative integers lie on the left side of a number line i.e., on the left side of 0,
∴ the answer is a) on the left side of 0.
Hope this helps :)
