Exercise 1A
Question 1
Write four rational numbers equivalent to each of the following numbers
(a) $\frac{2}{9}$
Sol :
$\frac{4}{18},\frac{6}{27},\frac{8}{36},\frac{10}{45}$
(b) $-\frac{3}{5}$
Sol :
$\frac{-6}{10},\frac{-9}{15},\frac{-12}{20},\frac{-15}{25}$
(c) $-\frac{7}{11}$
Sol :
$\frac{14}{-22},\frac{21}{-33},\frac{28}{-44},\frac{35}{-55}$
(d) $\frac{-6}{-13}$
Sol :
$\frac{-12}{-26},\frac{-18}{-39},\frac{-24}{-52},\frac{-30}{-65}$
Question 2
Write the following rational numbers in standard form.
$\frac{15}{20},\frac{64}{72},\frac{-54}{-63},\frac{88}{-99},\frac{-87}{156}$
Sol :
$\frac{15}{20}=\frac{3}{4}$
$\frac{64}{72}=\frac{8}{9}$
$\frac{-54}{-63}=\frac{6}{7}$
$\frac{88}{-99}=\frac{8}{-9}\times \frac{-1}{-1}$
$\frac{-87}{156}=-\frac{29}{52}$
Question 3
Write the absolute value value of each of the following.
$\frac{17}{24},\frac{-6}{35},\frac{-11}{-17},0,\frac{28}{-45}$
Sol :
$\frac{17}{24}=\frac{17}{24}$
$\frac{-6}{35}=\frac{6}{35}$
$\frac{-11}{-17}=\frac{11}{7}$
0=0
$\frac{28}{-45}=\frac{28}{45}$
Question 4
Write the rational numbers whose absolute value is $\frac{5}{6}$
Sol :
$+\frac{5}{6},-\frac{5}{6}$
Question 5
(a) -1<$\frac{-1}{2}$
(b) 1>-2
(c) 0>-3
(d) -5<-4
(e) $3\frac{3}{4}>1\frac{2}{5}$
(f) -4<$4\frac{2}{3}$
(g) $-3\frac{4}{5}>-4$
(h) $-\frac{1}{2}>-1\frac{5}{5}$
Question 6
Which pairs of rational numbers are not equivalent?
(a) $\frac{15}{19},\frac{-15}{-19}$
Sol :
$\frac{15\times -19}{-15\times 19}=\frac{-285}{-285}$
(b) $\frac{28}{-49},\frac{-4}{7}$
Sol :
$=\frac{-4}{7}=\frac{-4\times 7}{-7\times 4}=\frac{-28}{-28}$
(c) $\frac{16}{17},\frac{26}{27}$
Sol :
$\frac{16\times 27}{17\times 26}=\frac{432}{442}$
⇒432<442 (not equivalent)
(d) $\frac{27}{99},\frac{51}{187}$
Sol :
$\frac{3}{11},\frac{3}{11}$
$=\frac{3\times 11}{3\times 11}=\frac{33}{33}$
(e) $\frac{16}{20},\frac{4}{-5}$
Sol :
$=\frac{4}{5},\frac{4}{-5}=\frac{4\times -5}{5\times 5}=\frac{-20}{20}$
=-2 (not equivalent)
(c) and (e) are not equivalent
Question 7
Compare. Write <, > or = in the blanks to make a true statement.
(a) $-\frac{8}{15}< -\frac{7}{30}$
(b) $-\frac{1}{5}>-\frac{1}{4}$
(c) $\frac{3}{10}< \frac{5}{12}$
(d) $\frac{5}{6}=\frac{15}{18}$
(e) $\frac{1}{-25}<\frac{1}{50}$
(f) $\frac{17}{40}<0.519$
(g) -8.9<$\frac{-33}{4}$
(h) $\frac{-1}{8}=\frac{4}{-32}$
(i) $\frac{18}{-19}<\frac{-10}{11}$
(j) $\frac{-16}{25}>\frac{17}{-21}$
(k) $\frac{-5}{3}<\frac{40}{27}$
(l) $\frac{15}{-16}<\frac{-9}{10}$
Question 8
Arrange the following groups of rational numbers in ascending order.
(a) $\frac{-1}{4},\frac{1}{2},\frac{7}{8},\frac{15}{6},\frac{-9}{40}$
Sol :
$\frac{-1}{4},\frac{-9}{40},\frac{1}{2},\frac{7}{8},\frac{15}{6},$
(b) $\frac{5}{7},\frac{-7}{25},\frac{-9}{-4},\frac{-6}{5},\frac{8}{11}$
Sol :
$\frac{-9}{-4},\frac{-6}{5},\frac{-7}{25},\frac{5}{7},\frac{8}{11}$
Question 9
Arrange the following groups of rational numbers in descending order.
(a) $-\frac{13}{8},\frac{23}{12},\frac{-27}{16},\frac{17}{9},\frac{-11}{6}$
Sol :
$\frac{23}{12}>\frac{17}{9}>\frac{-13}{8}>\frac{-27}{16}>\frac{-11}{16}$
(b) $\frac{-7}{16},\frac{-1}{4},\frac{1}{8},\frac{9}{32},\frac{18}{25}$
