THE ANSWER IS OPTION B ✔ ✔
Concept:
We need to first recall the concept of division.
Division is the concept of dividing the dividend by divisor.
Given:
A pair of integer (a,b) such that a ÷ b = 2
To find:
A pair from the options which does not satisfy the given condition.
Solution:
In option (a)
(a,b) = (-6,-3)
a ÷ b = (-6) ÷ (-3)
= 2
so, option (a) satisfies the given condition.
In option (b)
(a,b) = (-2,1)
a ÷ b = (-2) ÷ (1)
= -2
so, option (b) does not satisfies the given condition.
In option (c)
(a,b) = (-10,-5)
a ÷ b = (-10) ÷ (-5)
= 2
so, option (c) satisfies the given condition.
In option (d)
(a,b) = (8,4)
a ÷ b = (8) ÷ (4)
= 2
so, option (d) satisfies the given condition.
Hence, the pair (-2,1) does not represent pair of integers (a,b) such that
a ÷ b = 2.
option(b) is correct choice.
