Question

Which is the greater rational number out of 5/-11,-5/12,5/-17​

Answer 1

Answer:

5/-17

Explanation:

5/-11 = -5/11

5/-17 = -5/17

In all three rational numbers, the numerators are same. When the numerators are same, we compare the denominators. The greater the denominator, the smaller the rational number. But for negative rational number, the greater the denominator, the greater the rational number.

11 < 12 < 17

Hence, -5/17 is the greatest rational number. Therefore, 5/-17 is the greatest out of 5/-11, -5/12 and 5/-17.
