OBJECTIVES:-

At the end of this module you will be able to- Know about what the rational

numbers are Develop Mathematical Concepts of

Rational Numbers Distinguish between various types

of Rational Numbers

Let’s start module

RATIONAL NUMBERS:-The numbers of the form p/q where p and q are

integers and q ≠ 0 are called Rational Numbers.

Eg. 3/2 , -7/8 , -2 =(-2/1) , 0=(0/1) etc.NOTE:- Every whole number , integer and

fraction is a Rational Number but vice-versa.Examples: 0,-2,3 etc are rational numbers as

each one of them can be written as 0/1, -2/1, 3/1 and so on.

POSITIVE and NEGATIVE Rational Numbers: Every rational number other than ‘zero’ is either positive or negative.

Positive Rational Numbers:-If both p and q are positive or negative

, the rational number will be Positive.

Eg. 5/4 (both positive) , -3/-4 (both negative) etc

Negative Rational Numbers :-If both p and q have opposite signs

i.e., p is positive and q is negative (eg .) 2/5 or p is negative and q is positive (eg .)7/11 , then the rational number is Negative.

Standard form of a Rational Number :-A rational number p/q is said to be in

standard form if q is positive and p and q have no common divisor other than 1. (HCF of p and q is 1).

Eg. 21/-70 = 21 ÷(-)7/(-)70 ÷ (-)7 = -3/10 ( divide both numerator and denominator by the H.C.F. of 21 and 70 i.e., 7 )

Therefore, -3/10 is the standard form as H.C.F. of -3 and 10 is 1 and denominator 10 is positive .

5Lets answer some

questions
