Question

Every negative rational number is smaller than zero.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Since every negative integer is less than zero.

Thus, a rational number with a negative numerator or a negative denominator is also less than zero.

Example:$\frac{-2}{3}<0$ and $\frac{7}{-8}<0$

Therefore, every negative rational number is less than zero.

Hence, the given statement is true.
