INTEGERS MCQs
:
A
Let's assume a car travelling toward North as positive and South as negative.
+60 + (- 100) = - 40. The car is 40 km South from point A.
:
C
Here, for any integer b,
b−1=−b.
:
The product of three negative integers is negative.
For example, −2×−1×−3=−6
:
Let the number in blank be x.
According to question,
x + 23 = 0
So, x = 0 - 23 = - 23
:
B
It is not always true. If one of the integers a is negative and the other one b is positive, then their product will be a negative integer, which is less than b.
Let's take an example: -4, 8
=−4×8
=−32
=−32<8
:
D
Here,
21×(−34)×(−12)=8568
(7×8)−9=47
7×(8−9)=−7
21×(−34)×(12)=−8568
∴−8568<−7<47<8568
:
C and D
We know that addition and subtraction of integers follow closure property. So, the first two statements are correct.
Consider four integers 3, 5, -6, -2.
The sum of these integers
= 3 + 5 + (-6) + (-2) = 0
Here,
-8 - (-7) = -1 then,
-1 > -14
Therefore, statement iii and iv are not true.
:
A
Let the number be a.
⇒ 16=−240a
⇒ a=−24016=−15
Hence, -240 should be divided by -15 to obtain 16.
:
Given, x % y = x + y - xy
Therefore, x = 13 and y = 7
13 % 7 = 13 + 7 - 13 × 7 = -71
:
C
Zero has no sign. It is neither positive nor negative.
