The valid fractions are -7/(-6) and -20/(-18), with both denominators nonzero. Do they represent the same rational number?
G001 — The valid fractions are -7/(-6) and -20/(-18), with both denominators nonzero. Do they represent the same rational number?
Definition and scope
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.
BASE sources do not acquire a generic legacy operation/domain or unknown-metadata ban.Retain metadata WITHOUT using it as an answer oracle.PULSE/legacy enforce their exact source keys,operation/domain.Do not impose universal tuples,/1 or input bounds.
Validate EVERY raw SAFE integer component,including the numerator at q0/0/0 eligibility.A validity task may legally return No;actual arithmetic requires ALL used denominators nonzero.
Use ORIGINAL operands and order for exact integer/rational arithmetic.Raw bounds are bank-specific;derived values do not inherit SAFE or foreign small caps.No floating approximation.

Fraction ORIGINAL cross product difference := sub(126, 120)
After
Fraction ORIGINAL cross product difference = 6
Conditions: none
Use ORIGINAL operands and order for exact integer/rational arithmetic.Raw bounds are bank-specific;derived values do not inherit SAFE or foreign small caps.No floating approximation.
With BOTH denominators nonzero,p/q=r/s IFF ps=rq.Negative denominators are legal.Compare complete exact products,not appearance or decimal approximation.

Result
No
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
