Question

For any rational numbers a and b, if their product is zero then either a or b equals 0.

Answer 1

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

because I explain you yes a or b equals to zero and if thier product is zero then either

Answer 2

ANSWER

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;a × b = 0

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;a × b = 0 Either;

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;a × b = 0 Either;a = 0 or,

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;a × b = 0 Either;a = 0 or, b = 0

Correct Question

Translate into a mathematical sentence. For any rational numbers a and b, if their product is zero then either a or b equals 0.

GIVEN

• 'a' and 'b' are rational numbers.
• a × b = 0
• either 'a' or 'b' is equal to zero.

TO FIND

Mathematical expressions from the given data.

SOLUTION

We know that,

Rational numbers are those which can be written in the form of P/Q

Where P and Q are integers and Q is not equal to zero.

The mathematical sentence of the given sentence is as follows-

If 'a' and 'b' are integers, then;

a × b = 0

Either;

a = 0 or,

b = 0
