Question

Which of the rational number - 11 by 28 - 5 by 7 9 by minus 14 29 by minus 42 is the largest

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The rational numbers = -11/28, -5/7, 9/-14, 29/-42

To find: Which among the above is the greatest?

Solution:

As we have given the rational numbers = -11/28, -5/7, 9/-14, 29/-42, we can notice that all the denominators of the given rational numbers are different.

We can also identify that the denominator of all given rational number is multiple of 7.

So first we need to make all the denominators same, we get:

                 -11/28 x 1.5/1.5 = -16.5 / 42

                 -5/7 x 6/6 = -30/42

                 9/-14 x 3/3 = -27/42

                 29/-42

Here we have made denominators equal to 42.

Now lets write again and compare

                -16.5 / 42 , -30/42 , -27/42 , -29/42

Largest = -16.5 / 42

Answer:

        So among all these fractions, - 16.5 / 42 is the largest one.
