Question

Q7) If a and b are positive integers,
then the solution of the equation ax
=b will always be a
a) negative number
b) positive number
c) O​

Answer 1

Answer:

If a and b are positive integers, then the solution of the equation ax = b is always a positive integer

Answer 2

Only if there is anything negative, there is a chance of the final answer to be negative. But here, both A and B are positive. Therefore the solution will ALWAYS BE POSITIVE.

ax = b

--> x = b/a

No change in the sign at all! It remains positive.

∴ Option B, is the right answer
