Complete question:
Which expression can be used to check the answer to 56 ÷ (-14) = n?
A) -14 x n
B) n ÷ (-14)
C) 56 x (-14)
D) n ÷ 56
Answer:
Option A
-14 x n can be used to check the answer to 56 ÷ (-14) = n
Solution:
Given is:
[tex]56 \div (-14) = n[/tex]
Which means,
56 divided by -14 gives n
Solve the expression
[tex]\frac{56}{-14} = n\\\\Which\ gives\\\\56 = n \times -14\\\\-14 \times n = 56[/tex]
To verify the result, we need to multiply n by (-14) to see if we can get, 56 as result
Thus, option A is correct
