Question

Rewrite the following rational numbers in the standard form:
(i) -8/6
(ii) 25/45
(iii) 44/- 72
(iv) -8 /-10

Answer 1

Answer:1) -8/6 = -4/3

2) 25/45= 5/9

3) 44/-72= 11/-18 but we don't write negative sign in denominator so the answer will be-11/18

4) -8/-10= 4/5 because minus and minus are cancelled

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$i) \: \: \frac{ - 8}{6 } = \frac{ - 4}{3} \\ \\ ii) \: \: \frac{25}{45} = \frac{5}{9} \\ \\ iii) \frac{44}{ - 72} = \frac{22}{ - 36} = \frac{11}{ - 18} = \frac{ - 11}{18} \\ \\ iv) \frac{ - 8}{ - 10} = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}$
