Question

Arrange the following rational numbers in ascending order -4/7,-9/14,13/-28,-23/42

Answer 1

Given: The numbers : -4/7,-9/14,13/-28,-23/42

To find: Arrange the following rational numbers in ascending order

Solution:

• Now we have given the numbers:

                 -4/7,  -9/14,  13/-28,  -23/42

• Now we can see that the denominators are multiple of 7, so making all denominators equal, we get:

                 -4/7 x 6/6,  -9/14 x 3/3,  13/-28 x 2/2,  -23/42

                 -24/42 , -27/42 , -26/42 , -23/42

• Now the numbers are having negative sign, so:

                 -27/42 , -26/42 , -24/42 , -23/42

                 -9/14, 13/-28, -4/7,  -23/42

Answer:

                So the ascending order is: -9/14, 13/-28, -4/7,  -23/42

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Arrange the following rational numbers in ascending order -4/7,-9/14,13/-28,-23/42

• We need to arrange the rational numbers in ascending order.
• So the rational numbers are – 4/7, - 9/14, - 13/ 28, - 23 / 42.
• We can take lcm of the denominators, we get 7,14,28,42
• So we get 7 x 2 x 2 x 1 x 3 = 84.
• Now consider the fraction one by one.
• So – 4/7 x 84 = - 48
• So – 9/14 x 84 = - 54
• So – 13/28 x 84 = - 39
• So – 23/42 x 84 = - 46
• Now arranging these numbers in ascending order we get                            (since negative)
• So – 54, - 48, - 46, - 39
• So – 9/14, - 4/7, - 23/42, - 13/28
