Answer 2

−7/9 and 7/−9 represent the negative and same rational number.

GIVEN:- −7/9 and 7/−9 represent the --------------------- rational number.

TO FIND:- Blank

SOLUTION:-

• Any fraction with a denominator not equal to zero is a rational number.

• In a Standard Form of Negative Rational Numbers, we infer that for a standard form of a negative rational number, a numerator is always a negative number if the denominator is a negative number because we multiply - 1 to both the numerator and denominator to change the denominator to a positive number.

• According to the question both are negative rational numbers because the first rational number has a negative sign in the numerator and the second rational number has a negative sign in the denominator.

As we know that the negative rational number when multiplied by -1 gives a positive number.

$\frac{ - 7}{9} \times - 1 = \frac{7}{9} \\ \frac{7}{ - 9} \times - 1 = \frac{ - 7}{ - 9} = \frac{7}{9}$

Therefore, We can conclude that both the negative rational numbers are same.

Hence, −7/9 and 7/−9 represent the negative and same rational number.
