उत्तर
The required number = `5/8 - 8/5`
| 2 | 8, 5 |
| 2 | 4, 5 |
| 2 | 2, 5 |
| 5 | 1, 5 |
| 1, 1 |
`= (5 xx 5)/(8 xx 5) - (8 xx 8)/(5 xx 8)`
(∵ L.C.M. of 8, 5 = 40)
`= (25 - 64)/40 = -39/40`

Compare: `2/7 and (-3)/-8`
Arrange the given rational numbers in ascending order:
`4/-9, (-5)/12 "and" 2/-3 `
Add: `-3 "and" 2/3 `
Add: `(-7)/24 "and" (-5)/48`
Evaluate: `5/-24 + (- 1)/8 + 3/16`
Evaluate: `(- 9)/4 + 13/3 + 25/6`
Subtract : `(-6)/11 "from" (-3)/(-11)`
Multiply: `5 1/8 "and" -16`
Evaluate: `((- 35)/39 xx (- 13)/7) - (7/90 xx (- 18)/14)`
The product of two rational numbers is 24. If one of them is `- 36/11`, find the other.
