To answer this question we notice the result of the original expression is positive; now, using the law of sign we notice that the negative sign in the fraction in option A will cancel out, leaving only the outer minus sign; after that if we make the product the result will be positve. This does not happens in option B, in this case the final result will be negative.

Therefore, the answer is A.
