Question

10. Fill in the blanks so as to make the statement true:

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(I) A number which can be expressed in the form m/n, where m and n are integers and n is not equal to zero, is called a Rational Number .

(ii) If the integers m and n have no common divisor other than 1 and n is positive, then the rational number m/n is said to be in the Simplest form .

(iii) Two rational numbers are said to be equal, if they have the same Simplest form .

(iv) If m is a common divisor of x and y, then x/y = (x ÷ k)/( y ÷ k) .

(v) The standard form of -1 is -1/1

(vi) If m/n is a rational number, then n cannot be 0

(vii) Two rational numbers with different numerators are equal, if their numerators are in the same ratio as their denominators.
