Answer 2

Answer:

The equivalent rational number to $\frac{-6}{5}$ is $\frac{36}{-30}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a rational number, $\frac{-6}{5}$

From the properties of rational numbers, if the numerator and denominator of a rational number are multiplied or divided by a non-zero integer, then the new number is equivalent to the given rational number.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator with $(-6)$,

$\frac{-6\times (-6)}{5\times (-6)}=\frac{36}{-30}$

If the common factor $(-6)$ is removed from the numerator and denominator, the rational number remains the same.

A rational number is a negative rational number when either the numerator or the denominator is a negative integer.

Therefore, the equivalent rational number to $\frac{-6}{5}$ is $\frac{36}{-30}$.
