Solution

The correct option is B False

False, because the quotient of any two integers is not always an integer.

For Example: 8÷(-2)=8-2=-4, here -4 is an integer because it divides evenly.

However, 2÷8=-28=-14 here -14 is not an integer.

So, when a quotient of integers does not divide evenly, the result is in a fraction.

Hence, The quotient of any two integers is not always an integer.
