Which of the two rational numbers is greater in the given pair?
(i)
or 0 (ii)
or 0 (iii)
or![]()
(iv)
or
(v)
or
(vi)
or![]()
(i)
is a positive number and all positive numbers are greater than 0.
Therefore, ![]()
(ii)
is a negative number and all negative numbers are less than 0.
Therefore, ![]()
(iii) Both
and
have the same denominator 4.
Therefore, we can directly compare both the numbers.
Since, 1 > -3
Therefore, ![]()
(iv) Both
and
have the same denominator 7.
Therefore, we can directly compare both the numbers.
Since, -4 > -5
Therefore, ![]()
(v)
and
have different denominators.
Therefore, we take LCM of 3 and 4 that is 12.
Now,
![]()
And,
![]()
Since, 9 > 8
Therefore, ![]()
Hence, ![]()
(vi) We can write ![]()
and
have different denominators.
Therefore, we take LCM of 1 and 2 that is 2.
Now,
![]()
And,
![]()
Since, -1 > -2
Therefore, ![]()
Hence, ![]()
