I want step by step explanation ​

Answer 1

Answer:

a and d are negative rational numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. -2/3 ( can’t be simplified further) : negative rational number.

b. 14/9 : positive rational number.

c. -2/-9 : as both numerator and denominator have the minus sign, the minus sign cancels and becomes 2/9 which is positive.

d. -31/15 : negative rational number. It can also be written as -2 1/15 which is also a negative rational number.
