What is a rational number?
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. In other words, a rational number is any number that can be written in the form a/b, where a and b are integers, and b is not equal to zero. Rational numbers can be finite, repeating decimals, or terminating decimals.
How do you determine the numerator and denominator of a rational number?
In a rational number, the numerator is the integer on the top of the fraction, and the denominator is the integer on the bottom of the fraction. To determine the numerator and denominator of a rational number, you look at the numbers in the fraction and identify which one is the numerator and which one is the denominator based on their positions.
How do you find the least common multiple (LCM) of two or more rational numbers?
To find the least common multiple (LCM) of two or more rational numbers, you can first express each number as a fraction in simplest form. Then, identify the prime factors of each denominator and create a list of all unique factors with the highest power for each. Finally, multiply all the prime factors together to get the LCM of the rational numbers.
Can all rational numbers be represented as fractions? Why or why not?
Yes, all rational numbers can be represented as fractions. Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. Fractions, by definition, are a way to represent ratios of integers, with the numerator and denominator being integers. Therefore, any rational number can be written in the form of a fraction.
How do you add or subtract rational numbers?
To add or subtract rational numbers, you simply add or subtract the numerators while keeping the common denominator the same. If the denominators are already the same, you can just add or subtract the numerators directly. If the denominators are different, find a common denominator by finding the least common multiple of the denominators, then adjust the numerators accordingly. Once you have a common denominator, add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same.
How do you multiply and divide rational numbers?
To multiply rational numbers, you simply multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together. To divide rational numbers, you multiply the first rational number by the reciprocal of the second rational number. This means you flip the second fraction upside down and then multiply the two fractions as if you were performing multiplication. Remember to always simplify the resulting fractions by reducing them to lowest terms, if possible.
How do you simplify a rational number?
To simplify a rational number, you need to divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). By simplifying a rational number in this way, you reduce it to its smallest form without changing its overall value. This process helps make calculations and comparisons easier.
Can rational numbers be negative? Explain.
Yes, rational numbers can be negative. A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. This means that both positive and negative integers can be used in the numerator and the denominator when forming rational numbers. Negative rational numbers are typically written with a negative sign in front of the fraction to represent values less than zero.
How can you determine if a number is rational or irrational?
A number is rational if it can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. In contrast, a number is irrational if it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers and has an infinite, non-repeating decimal expansion. To determine if a number is rational or irrational, one can try to represent it as a fraction. If it can be expressed as a fraction, it is rational; if not, it is irrational.
How are rational numbers related to the number line?
Rational numbers are related to the number line in that they can be plotted as points on the number line. Each rational number corresponds to a unique point on the number line, with the larger the number, the further to the right it is on the line. Rational numbers are evenly spaced along the number line, making it a valuable tool for visualizing and understanding the ordering and relationships between these numbers.
