Question

write the rational number 12/16 in form

Answer 1

Answer:

Expressing a rational number into standard form means there is no common factor, other than 1, available in its numerator and denominator and its denominator is a positive integer. Numbers which can be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero, are known as rational numbers. Hence, if 4/6 is a rational number, then its standard form will be 2/3 since we cannot solve 2/3, any more.

The standard form of rational number helps us to determine the value in a more specific way. Like, 20/25 can be expressed as 4/5, 10/20 can be expressed as 1/2 and so on.
