Question 511 Mark
The standard form of $\frac{-8}{-24}$ is ______.
Answer
The standard form of $\frac{-8}{-24}$ is $\frac{-3}{4}$.Solution:
Given rational number is $\frac{-8}{-24},$ For standrad/ simplest from, $\frac{18+6}{-24+4}=\frac{3}{-4}$ $[\therefore \text{HCF of 18 and 24}=6]$ Hence, the standard from of, $\frac{18}{-24}$ is $\frac{-3}{4}.$

Question 541 Mark
If $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$ is a rational number and $m$ is a non-zero integer, then $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{m}}{\text{q}\times\text{m}}$
Answer
e.g. Let $m = 1, 2, 3,...$ When $m = 1,$
then, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}\times1}{1\times\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$
When $m = 2,$ then,
$\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}\times2}{\text{q}\times{2}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$
Hence, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{m}}{\text{q}\times\text{m}}$
Note: When both numerator and denominator of a rational number are multiplied/ divide by a same non-zero number, then we get the same rational number

Question 571 Mark
If $p$ and $q$ are positive integers, then $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$ is a ______ rational number and $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{-q}}$ is a _____ rational number.
Answer
if $p$ and $q$ are positive integers,
then $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$ is a positive rational number,
because both numerator and denominator are positive and $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{-q}}$ is a negative rational number,
because denominator is in negative.

Question 611 Mark
$\frac{-9}{7}\Box\frac{4}{-7}$
Answer
$\frac{-9}{7}<\frac{4}{-7}$Solution:
Given rational numbers are $\frac{-9}{7}$ and $\frac{4}{-7}$ Since, both fractions have same denominator, the fraction which have greater numerator is greator. But in negative number, the numerator which is smailer the greater number. Hence, $\frac{-9}{7}<\frac{4}{-7}$

Question 651 Mark
$\frac{-1}{2}$ is ____ then $\frac{1}{5.}$
Answer
Given rational numbers are $\frac{-1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{5}.$
$LCM$ of their denominatoes, i.s. $2$ and $5 = 10$
$\therefore\frac{-1\times5}{2\times5}=\frac{-5}{10}$ and $\frac{1\times2}{5\times2}=\frac{2}{10}$
$\because2>-5$
So, $\frac{1}{5}>\frac{-1}{5}$
Hence, $\frac{-1}{2}$ is smaller than $\frac{1}{5.}$

Question 681 Mark
If $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$ is a rational number and $m$ is a non-zerocommon divisor of $p$ and $q,$ then, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{m}}{\text{q}\times\text{m}}$
Answer
e.g. Let $m = 1, 2, 3,...$ When $m = 1,$
then, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}+1}{\text{q}+1}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{1}}\div\frac{\text{q}}{\text{1}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{1}}\times\frac{1}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$
When $m = 2,$
then, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}+2}{\text{q}+2}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{2}}\div\frac{\text{q}}{\text{2}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{2}}\times\frac{2}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}$
Hence, $\frac{\text{P}}{\text{q}}=\frac{\text{P}+\text{m}}{\text{q}+\text{m}}$

Question 731 Mark
$\frac{-16}{24}$ and $\frac{20}{-15}$ reoresent _____ rational numbers.
Answer
$\frac{-16}{24}$ and $\frac{20}{-15}$ reoresent diffferent rational numbers.
Solution:
Given numbers are,
