R0068-34770 · q-20260920-rational-denominator-sign-normalization-0020
Normalize 7/-2 to an exact representation with a positive denominator.
G001 — Normalize 7/-2 to an exact representation with a positive denominator.Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
source roles = [qf-rational-denominator-sign-normalization, [p, q]]
After
derived = [BASE-no-required-operation, no-invented-domain]
Conditions: none
Separate source banks:legacy RAW SAFE with unbounded derived BigInts versus BASE Number.isInteger without invented SAFE/million caps.Operations,domains and permissive/exact keys follow THIS bank.Keep ORIGINAL JSON intact.

Before
source roles = [7, -2]
After
derived = [-7, 2, -7/2]
Conditions: none
ONLY when the denominator is negative,multiply BOTH components by−1.This task DOES NOT REDUCE:2/2,0/4,−2/6 may be correct sign-only answers.A positive denominator leaves the original representation unchanged.Do not silently substitute lowest terms.
