The quotient of a and b is positive.
The quotient of O and cis O.
The quotient of cand bis negative.
The quotient of O and a is undefined.

Answer 1

4. The quotient of 0 and a is undefined.

Explanation:

Let's examine each statement to see which is true or untrue.

✔️Statement 1:

a is a negative number. b is also a negative number. A negative number dividing another negative number would give us a positive number. That is the quotient of a and b would be positive.

Statement 1 is true.

✔️Statement 2:

Dividing 0 by any number would always give us 0. Therefore the quotient of 0 and c would be 0.

Statement 2 is correct.

✔️Statement 3:

c is a positive number. b is negative number. Positive divided by negative = negative.

Statement 3 is correct.

✔️Statement 4:

Dividing 0 by any number would give us a quotient of 0.

Statement 4 is incorrect. It is incorrect because ⁰/a = 0. But a/0 = undefined.
