Exercise 2 (C) | Q 6.4

Find three rational numbers equivalent to `8/-15`

Express the following rational number in the standard form. `(-7)/-8`

Add: `(-7)/26 "and" 7/-26`

Add: `-3 "and" 2/3 `

Add: `(-7)/24 "and" (-5)/48`

Subtract: `(- 7)/4 "from" -2`

Evaluate: `((-5)/9 xx 6/-25) + (24/21 xx 7/8)`

Evaluate: `((-4)/5 xx 3/2) + (9/-5 xx 10/3) - ((-3)/2 xx (-1)/4)`

Evaluate: `3 5/12 + 1 2/3`

The product of two rational numbers is 24. If one of them is `- 36/11`, find the other.
