Solution

The correct option is B Only statement 1 is true.​
The product of two numbers of the same sign is a positive number. Moreover, the product of two integers is an integer. Hence, statement 1 is true.​ ​
However, even though the quotient of two integers with the same sign is a positive number, it need not be an integer. Hence, statement 2 is false.​
