Question

Which of the following rational numbers when plotted on the number line is far away from

left of zero? a) -5/6 b) 2/-7 c) -6/5 d) -11/5
​

Answer 1

Answer:

First, we will make the denominators of the rational numbers same so we can determine which of the following is the smallest.

⇒ LCM of 6, 7 and 5

= 210

-5×35/6×35

= -175/210

-2×30/7×30

= -60/210

-6×42/5×42

= -252/210

-11×42/5×42

= -462/210

We can notice that -462 is the smallest of all the rational numbers. Since -462/210= -11/5, this means that the number that will be most on the left of 0 is:

d) -11/5 Ans
