4/9,-5/6,-7/-12, and 11/-24 are rational numbers.The smallest number is

Answer 1

Hey!

To know the smallest numbers among the given numbers, just divide the numerator by the denominator.

$\frac{4}{9} = 0.44..\\\\ \frac{-5}{6}= -0.83... \\\\\frac{7}{12}=0.58\\\\\frac{-11}{24}=-0.45$  

(Here, in the -7/-12, minus sign is cancelled and in 11/-24, the minus is shifted on numerator)

From the above results we can easily find that the smallest number is -5/6.
