Suppose multiplication over rationals was defined as follows:“ For any two rationals a//b and c//d where a, b, c, d not equal to 0 ∈ Z, the product is given by a//b × c//d = ad//bc ”Explain what goes wrong here and how does this definition restrict us in further developing the calculus of rationals. Provide sound mathematical reasoning to support your explanation.
