ANSWERS:

▪ Rational Number- Any Number that can be expressed in the form p/q , where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0, is known as rational number. The collection or group of rational numbers is denoted by Q.

Properties of a Rational Number

▪ Closure- Rational numbers are closed under addition, subtraction and multiplication. For eg.- If p and q are any two rational numbers, then and the sum, difference and product of these rational numbers is also a rational number. This is known as the closure law

▪ Commutativity- Rational numbers are commutative under addition and multiplication. If p and q are two rational numbers, then:

Commutative law under addition says- p + q = q + p.

Commutative law under multiplication says p x q = q x p.

Note- Rational numbers, integers and whole numbers are commutative under addition and multiplication. Rational numbers, integers and whole numbers are non commutative under subtraction and division.

▪ Associativity- Rational numbers are associative under addition and multiplication. If a, b, c are rational numbers, then:

Associative property under addition: p + (q + r) = (p + q) + r

Associative property under multiplication: p(qr) = (pq)r

▪ Role of zero and one- 0 is the additive identity for rational numbers. 1 is the multiplicative identity for rational numbers.

▪ Multiplicative inverse- If the product of two rational numbers is 1, then they are called multiplicative inverse of each other.

Eg. 4/9 * 9/4 = 1

Hope it will helpful for you.

Please make me BRAINLIEST.

Q . What are the multiplicative and additive identities of rational numbers?

Ans : Role of zero and one- 0 is the additive identity for rational numbers. 1 is the multiplicative identity for rational numbers. Multiplicative inverse- If the product of two rational numbers is 1, then they are called multiplicative inverse of each other.

Q . what are rational numbers ?

=> A rational number is a number that can be express as the ratio of two integers. ... However, one third can be express as 1 divided by 3, and since 1 and 3 are both integers, one third is a rational number. Likewise, any integer can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, thus all integers are rational.

Q . What are positive and negative rational number give three example of each?

=> In other words, a rational number is negative, if its numerator and denominator are of the opposite signs. Each of the rational numbers -1/6, 2/-7, -30/11, 13/-19, -15/23 are negative rationals, but -11/-18, 2/5, -3/-5, 1/3 are not negative rationals. ... Note: The rational number 0 is neither positive nor negative.

hope it helps ❤
