Answer:
They are both equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1) Convert 8/-36 to a proper rational number (p/q form where q is neither negative nor zero)
= -8/36
Step 2) Then, make the denominators equal (Change it from unlike rational numbers to like rational numbers)
LCM of the denominators ( 9 & 36 ) = 36
Step 3) Change the Denominators
= -2/9 (First rational number)
= -2*4 / 9*4
= -8/36
= -8/36 (Second rational number)
= =8*1 / 36*1
= -8/36
Step 4) Compare
-8/36 = -8/36
Therefore, -2/9 and 8/-36 are equal.
