The product of any two rational numbers will always be greater than either of the two factors.Explanation / Answer
Statement is : The product of two rational numbers will always be greater than either of the two factors.
This statement is false.
Let two rational numbers be p and q.
Let p < 0 and q > 0
We have product = pq < 0
Since q > 0 and pq < 0
=> q > pq
Thus one of the factors can be greater then the product.
