Question 1:

Tick (✓) the correct answer
-516+712=?
(a) -748
(b) 124
(c) 1348
(d) 13

Answer 1:

(c) 1348
The denominators of the given rational numbers are 16 and 12, respectively.
LCM of 16 and 12 is 4×4×3, that is,48
Now, we have:
-516+712=3×-5+4×748

                      =-15+2848=1348

Tick (✓) the correct answer
8-15+4-3=?
(a) 2815
(b) -2815
(c) -45
(d) -415

Answer 2:

(b) -2815

(b) 167
(c) -267
(d) -87

Answer 4:

(b) 167

3=31 and 5-7=-57

Now, we have:
         
3+5-7=31+-57

LCM of 1 and 7 is 7

31+-57=7×3+1×-57
                    =21+-57=167

Q12 | Ex-1H | Class 8 | Rational Numbers | RS AGGARWAL | Chapter 1 | myhelper

Question 12:

Tick (✓) the correct answer
The product of two rational numbers is -2881. If one of the numbers is 1427 then the other one is
(a) -23
(b) 23
(c) 32
(d) -32

Answer 12:

(a) -23
Let the other number be x.

Now,

x×1427=-2881

x=-2881÷1427

       =-2881×2714=-28×2781×14=-28×2781×14=-2×39×1=-69=-23
Thus, the other number is -23
