Question

Q4: Verify that a ÷ ( b + c ) ≠ ( a ÷ b ) + ( a ÷ c).

(a) a = 12, b = - 2 c = - 1
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing the values of a,b,c in the equation e get =》

LHS a÷ (b+c)

12÷[(-2)+(-1)]

= 12÷(-3)

= (-4)

RHS (a÷b)+(a÷c)

[12÷(-2)]+ [12÷(-1)]

= (-6)+(-12)

= (-6)-12

= ( -18)

Since LHS IS NOT EQUAL TO RHS , thus proven
