Numbers Which Can Be Expressed in The Form of P/Q Where Q 0

This document discusses rational numbers and operations on rational numbers. It defines rational numbers as numbers that can be expressed as p/q where q ≠ 0. It provides examples of positive and negative rational numbers. It explains how to write rational numbers in standard form or simplest form by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor. It also discusses how to find equivalent rational numbers by multiplying the numerator and denominator by the same non-zero integer. Finally, it explains how to perform the four basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) on rational numbers through examples.

Numbers which can be expressed in

the form of
P/Q where Q≠ 0

Example ⅙ , ⅙, ⅝, ⅞
BY : ADITYA MALIK
CLASS: VII- C
Positive rational numbers Negative Rational Number
• Example: 9/8, 12/7,9/5 • Example : -2/3, -5/6, -23/7

Standard form /Simplest form : Common factor is 1

• Eg: 25/30
• When we divide 25/30 by 5 we get 5/6 which is further not
divisible and we get 1

Another example 12/18 when divide by 2 we get 6/9 and again


when we divide 6/9 by 3 we get 2/3
Equivalent Rational
Number
Equivalent mean equal , when numerator and
denominator are multiplied by the same non
zero integer we can get a rational number
which is equivalent to the original number

• Eg. 2/5 when multiplied by 5 we get 10/25, If we divide 10/25 by 5 we


get 2/5

• So 2/5=10/25= 6/15 are all equivalent fraction


We can find unlimited number of rational number between any two rational number

Operation of Rational Numbers


• Addition
– With same denominator
• 3/2 + 7/2 = 10/2= 5
– With different denominator
• -3/2 and -5/3 . Take L.C.M of 2 and 3 ie 6
• Now make the fractions having same denominator
-3 x 3/ 2 x 3 = -9/6

-5 x 2 / 3 x 2= -10/6

Now add -9/6 + (-10)/6 = -9 -10/6= -19/ 6 Ans


• Subtraction of Rational Number
When we subtract two rational number , we add the additive
inverse of the rational number that is being subtracted to the other
rational number.
a-b = a+ (-b)
Example: 5/3 – 14/5 = 5/3 + (-14/5)
= take LCM of 3 and 5 to make same denominator=15
s= 25/15 + ( -42/15) = -17/15 answer

• Multiplication of Rational Number


We multiply Numerator with Numerator and Denominator by Denominator

Example : 2/3 x 6/5 = 2 x 6 / 3 x 5 = 12/15 = 4/5 Answer

•Division of a Rational Number


To divide the rational number by another we multiply the rational number by
reciprocal of another number
Example: 7/8 ÷3/2 = 7/8 x 2/3 = 14/24 = 7/12 Answer
