Division Involving Directed Number

The document provides rules and examples for dividing fractions and mixed numbers. It states that when dividing fractions, the division symbol should be changed to a multiplication symbol and the divisor fraction should be changed to an improper fraction. It also notes that the sign of the answer depends on the rules for multiplying integers, where an even number of negatives gives a positive answer and an odd number gives a negative answer. An example of dividing a simple fraction is worked out as well.

DIVISION INVOLVING DIRECTED NUMBER (FRACTION) : FORM 2

Rules on INTERGERS :

(+) (+) = +
(+) ( ) =
( )( )=+
( ) (+) =

Example : (Doing with a simple fraction)

1. –

First step : When you are doing division of fractions , the symbol ÷ must be
change to .Other than that, the divisor of the fraction must be change to
improper.

Second step : Then, you are dealing with directed numbers which has negative
or positive signs. To find the answer , practice your self to put the sign before
counting the answer. Use the rule above.

So ,

Full Working:
Example : (Doing it with mixed number)

2.

 Rule on doing mixed number of fractions with operation is to MUST


convert the mixed number to IMPROPER FRACTIONS :

(a)
(b)
(c)

So, follow the rule as like Example 1:

Alternative rules of doing multiplication and division of integers to find the


answers. Count the number of negative.

The number of negative is an even number = (+)


The number of negative is an odd number = (
