The correct response is: The quotient is positive if signs of the divisor and dividend are the same.
In mathematical terms, when both the dividend and divisor have the same sign (both positive or both negative), their quotient is positive. Conversely, when one is positive and the other is negative, the quotient is negative.
To find the product of \(-5 \times (-10) \times 12\):
First, calculate \(-5 \times -10\): \[ -5 \times -10 = 50 \quad (\text{because the product of two negative numbers is positive}) \]
Next, multiply the result by \(12\): \[ 50 \times 12 = 600 \]
Therefore, the product is \(600\).
The correct response is: 600.
To solve \( \frac{3}{8} \div 2 \), you can convert \(2\) to a fraction by writing it as \( \frac{2}{1} \), and then apply the rule that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal:
\[ \frac{3}{8} \div 2 = \frac{3}{8} \div \frac{2}{1} = \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{2} \]
Now multiply the fractions:
\[ \frac{3 \times 1}{8 \times 2} = \frac{3}{16} \]
Therefore, \( \frac{3}{8} \div 2 = \frac{3}{16} \).
The correct response is: 3/16.
