Topic #: 1

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Quantity A (ad) is a negative fractional number greater than a and approaching zero (0).
Similarly, Quantity B (bc) is a negative fractional number greater than band approaching zero (0). But ad
must be less than cd(that is, further to the left than cd on the number line). Why? If a and b were both
multiplied by c(a positive number), the inequality between a and b(a <b) would remain unchanged: ac <
bc. It makes sense that if a is ultiplied instead by a positive number D. that is greater than c, then the
inequality between a and b not only remains the same but actually increases. In any event, ad < bc
