Question

which of the rational numbers -5/16 , -13/24 , 3/-4 , 7/-12 Is the smallest​

Answer 1

Answer:

-5/6is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the smallest numbers among the given numbers, just divide the numerator by the denominator.

\begin{gathered}\frac{4}{9} = 0.44..\\\\ \frac{-5}{6}= -0.83... \\\\\frac{7}{12}=0.58\\\\\frac{-11}{24}=-0.45\end{gathered}94=0.44..6−5=−0.83...127=0.5824−11=−0.45  

(Here, in the -7/-12, minus sign is cancelled and in 11/-24, the minus is shifted on numerator)

From the above results we can easily find that the smallest number is -5/6.
