Question

Arrange the following rational number in descending order -5/6,-7/12,11/24​

Answer 1

Answer:

• We will learn how to arrange the rational numbers in descending order. General method to arrange from largest to smallest rational numbers (decreasing): Step 1: Express the given rational numbers with positive denominator. Step 2: Take the least common multiple (L.C.M.) of these positive denominator.

Answer 2

The question is :

$\frac{ - 5}{ 6} \: \frac{ - 7}{ 12} \: \frac{ 11}{24}$

So, here we see that the denominators are factors of 6.

This means that,

6 × 4 = 24

12 × 2 = 24

24 × 1 = 24

we can make the denominators equal using this.

-5/6 × 4/4 = -20/24

-7/12 × 2/2 = -14/24

11/24 × 1/1 = 11/24

Now, we can arrange these into descending order.

11/24 > -14/24 > -20/24

Now, we arrange corresponding fractions using this.

So, the answer is:-

11/24 > -7/24 > -20/24

Hope this helps.
