Express (2/5) as a rational number with numerator:(i) -56(ii) 154(iii) -750(iv) 500

Answer»

(i) Given (2/5)

To get numerator -56 we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by -28

Then we get, (2/5) × (-28/-28)

= (-56/-140)

Therefore (2/5) as a rational number with numerator -56 is (-56/-150)

(ii) Given (2/5)

To get numerator 154 we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by 77

Then we get, (2/5) × (77/77)

= (154/385)

Therefore (2/5) as a rational number with numerator 154 is (154/385)

(iii) Given (2/5)

To get numerator -750 we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by -375

Then we get, (2/5) × (-375/-375)

= (-750/-1875)

Therefore (2/5) as a rational number with numerator -750 is (-750/-1875)

(iv) Given (2/5)

To get numerator 500 we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by 250

Then we get, (2/5) × (250/250)

= (500/1250)

Therefore (2/5) as a rational number with numerator 500 is (500/1250)
