Answer 2

Given to write the rational number in standard form for $\dfrac{-36}{-216}$

SOLUTION :  

How can we identify the given number is in a standard form

We can identify if the two numbers are co-primes that means there is no common factor . If you observe the given rational number there are common factors like 2,6 etc Hence we can say it is not in standard form So, we have to convert into standard form

$36= 2\times2\times3\times3\\216 = 2\times3\times2\times3\times2\times3$

So,

$\dfrac{-36}{-216} =\dfrac{36}{216}$

$\dfrac{2\times2\times3\times3}{2\times3\times2\times3\times2\times3}$

$\dfrac{1}{2\times3}$

$\dfrac{1}{6}$

Now if you observe there is no common factor for 1,6 since it is in standard form

So its standard form is 1/6
