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.
original integer numerator/denominator representations;original denominators nonzero
After
representation and rational value are distinct data
Conditions: none
Negative denominators are valid,but reduced values do not replace original representations.Candidate algorithms about raw numerators/denominators must use those raw data.This finite audit is not a general proof of quotient well-definedness.
Test whether the value is0,not the sign of the original denominator.A zero numerator over a negative nonzero denominator is valid zero,but has no reciprocal.
Test whether the value is0,not the sign of the original denominator.A zero numerator over a negative nonzero denominator is valid zero,but has no reciprocal.

Result
(-8/9, [Yes, Yes], [3/4, -3/2], -9/8)
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
