Question

The value of 5 ÷ (–1) does not lie between
(a) 0 and – 10 (b) 0 and 10 (c) – 4 and – 15 (d) – 6 and 6

Answer 1

(b) 0 and 10 .....................................

Answer 2

The value of 5 ÷ (–1) does not lie between: (b) 0 and 10.

If we divide 5 / (-1) we get,

$\frac{5}{-1} = -5$

-5 is a negative number and it lies between (a)  0 and -10 (c) – 4 and – 15 (d) – 6 and 6. Therefore, these options are incorrect.

b) 0 and 10

-5 is a negative number so, it does not lie between 0 and 10.

Hence, b is the correct option.
