$\frac{-7}{13}-\Big(\frac{-8}{15}\Big)=$
  • A
    $-\frac{239}{195}$
  • B
    $\frac{29}{195}$
  • C
    $\frac{-29}{195}$
  • None of these.
Answer
Correct option: D.
None of these.
$\frac{-7}{13}-\Big(\frac{-8}{15}\Big)$
$=​​\frac{-7}{13}+\frac{8}{15}$ $\Big[-\Big(\frac{-8}{15}\Big)=\frac{8}{15}\Big]$
$=\frac{-7\times15+8\times13}{195} (\text{LCM}$ of $13$ and $15 = 195)$
$=\frac{-105+104}{195}$
$=\frac{-1}{195}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(d).$

What should be added to $\frac{-7}{9}$ to get?
  • A
    $\frac{11}{9}$
  • $\frac{-11}{9}$
  • C
    $\frac{25}{9}$
  • D
    $\frac{-25}{9}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{-11}{9}$

Sum of the given number and the required number $= 2$

$\therefore$ Required number $=$ Sum of the numbers $-$ Given number
$=2-\Big(\frac{-7}{9}\Big)$
$=\frac{2}{1}+\frac{7}{9}$
$=\frac{2\times9+7\times1}{9}$
$=\frac{18+7}{9}$
$=\frac{25}{9}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(d).$

MCQ 41 Mark
If $\frac{\text{x}}{3}+\frac{1}{3}=1,$ then $x = ?$
  • A
    $\frac{3}{4}$
  • $\frac{4}{3}$
  • C
    $-\frac{3}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{-4}{3}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{4}{3}$

$​​\frac{\text{x}}{2}+\frac{1}{3}=1$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{2}=1-\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{2}=\frac{3\times1-1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{2}=\frac{3-1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{2}=\frac{2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{x}}{2}=\frac{2\times2}{3} ($Multiplying both sides by $2)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{4}{3}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b).$

MCQ 71 Mark
If the product of two non-zero rational numbers is $1,$
Then they are:
  • A
    Additve inverse of each other.
  • B
    Multiplicative inverse of each other.
  • C
    Reciprocal of each other.
  • Both $(b)$ and $(c)$
Answer
Correct option: D.
Both $(b)$ and $(c)$

For every non$-$zero rational number $\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}$ there exists a rational number $\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}$ such that:
$\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\times\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}=1$
Here, the rational number $\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}$ is called the multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of $\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}$
Thus, if the product of two non$-$zero rational numbers is $1$, then they are multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of each other.
Hence, the correct answer is option $(d).$

$(-2)\div\Big(​​-\frac{5}{3}\Big)$
$=-2\times\Big(-\frac{3}{5}\Big)$ $\text{x}\div\text{y}=\text{x}\times\frac{1}{\text{y}}$
$=\frac{-2}{1}\times\frac{(-3)}{5}$
$=\frac{-2\times(-3)}{1\times5}$ $\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\times\frac{\text{c}}{\text{d}}=\frac{\text{a}\times\text{c}}{\text{b}\times\text{d}}\Big)$
$=\frac{6}{5}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(c).$

MCQ 111 Mark
What should be subtracted from $\frac{-2}{3}$ to get$\frac{4}{5}?$
  • A
    $\frac{22}{15}$
  • $\frac{-22}{15}$
  • C
    $\frac{15}{22}$
  • D
    $\frac{-15}{22}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{-22}{15}$

Difference of the given number and required number $=\frac{4}{5}$
Given number $=\frac{-2}{3}$
$\therefore$ Required number $=$ Given number $-$ Difference of the numbers
$=\frac{-2}{3}-\frac{4}{5}$
$=\frac{-2}{3}+\Big(\frac{-4}{5}\Big)$
$=\frac{-2\times5+(-4)\times3}{15}$
$=\frac{-10+(-12)}{15}$
$=\frac{-22}{15}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b).$

    $\frac{5}{4}$
  • $\frac{5}{-4}$
  • D
    $​​\frac{-5}{-4}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{5}{-4}$

We know that the multiplicative inverse of the rational number $\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\text{ is }\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}$
$\therefore$ Multiplicative inverse of $\frac{4}{-5}=\frac{-5}{4}=\frac{5}{-4}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(c).$

Reciprocal of $\frac{-3}{4}$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{3}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{3}$
  • $\frac{-4}{3}$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{-4}{3}$

We know that the reciprocal of the rational number $\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\text{ is }\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\Big)^{-1}=\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}$
$\therefore$ Reciprocal of $\frac{-3}{4}$
$=\Big(\frac{-3}{4}\Big)^{-1}$
$=\frac{4}{-3}$
$=\frac{4\times(-1)}{-3\times(-1)}$
$=\frac{-4}{3}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(c).$

$=\frac{5\times3+(-7)\times2+2\times4}{12} (\text{LCM}$ of $3, 4$ and $6 = 12)$
$=\frac{15-14+8}{12}$
$=\frac{9}{12}$
$=\frac{9\div3}{12\div3} ($Dividing numerator and denominator by $3)$
$=\frac{3}{4}$
