Question

How to find the standard form of rational numbers?

Answer 1

Answer:

find the HCF of the number

devide divide numerator and denominator with the HCF

then what we get is a standard form of the rational number

Answer 2

A rational number p/q is said to be in its standard form if p and q you have no common factor other than 1 i.e. p and q are co primes. For example , 2/3, 5/9, - 4/11, -5/8, etc are in standard form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that a number like 12/40 is not in the standard form of of rational number, since both the numerator and denominator are multiples of 2 . 12/40 can be reduced to 3/10 by dividing the numerator and denominator bye there HCF , i.e.,2. Since 3/10 is in the standard form.
