Answer If $a$ is reciprocal of $b,$ then the reciprocal of $b$ is $a$
If $a$ is reciprocal of $b,$ then
$⇒ a × b = 1 [$Commutative property is true for multiplication$]$
$⇒ b × a = 1$

If $\frac{27}{-45}$ is expressed as a rational number with denominator $5,$ then the numerator is:
Answer In order to express $\frac{27}{-45}$ as a rational number with denominator $5,$ firstly find a number which gives $5$ when $-45$ is divided by it.
This number is $-45\div5=-9$
Dividing the numerator and denominator of $\frac{27}{-45}$ by $-9,$
We have:
$\frac{27}{-45}=\frac{27\div(-9)}{-45\div(-9)}=\frac{-3}{5}$
Thus, the numerator is $-3.$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b).$

If the rational numbers $\frac{-2}{3}\text{ and }\frac{4}{\text{x}}$ represent a pair of equivalent rational numbers, then $x:$
AnswerIt is given that the rational numbers $\frac{-2}{3}\text{ and }\frac{4}{\text{x}}$ represent a pair of equivalent rational numbers.
We know that the values of two equivalent rational numbers is equal.
$\therefore\frac{-2}{3}=\frac{4}{\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow-2\times\text{x}=4\times3$ $\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}=\frac{\text{c}}{\text{d}}\Rightarrow\text{ad}=\text{bc}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow-2\text{x}=12$
$\Rightarrow\frac{-2\text{x}}{-2}=\frac{12}{-2} ($Dividing both sides by $-2)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=-6$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b).$

AnswerIt is given that the rational numbers $-\frac{3}{8}\text{ and }\frac{\text{x}}{-24}$ are equivalent rational numbers.
We know that the values of two equivalent rational numbers is equal.
$\therefore\frac{\text{x}}{-24}=-\frac{3}{8}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\times8=-3\times(-24)$ $\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}=\frac{\text{c}}{\text{d}}\Rightarrow\text{ad}=\text{bc}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow8\text{x}=72$
$\Rightarrow\frac{8\text{x}}{8}=\frac{72}{8}$
$($Dividing both sides by $8)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=9 $
Hence, the correct answer is option $(c)$.

If $\frac{-3}{7}=\frac{\text{x}}{35}\text{ then }\text{x}=?$
AnswerFirstly, write $\frac{-3}{7}$ as a rational number with denominator $35.$
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of $\frac{-3}{7}$ by $5,$
We have:
$\frac{-3}{7}=\frac{-3\times5}{7\times5}=\frac{-15}{35}$
$\therefore\frac{-3}{7}=\frac{\text{x}}{35}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{-15}{35}=\frac{\text{x}}{35}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=-15$

A rational number equal to $\frac{-2}{3}$ is:
- A
$\frac{-10}{25}$
- ✓
$\frac{10}{-15}$
- C
$\frac{-9}{6}$
- D
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\frac{10}{-15}$
We know that two rational numbers are equal if they have the same standard form.
The rational number $\frac{-2}{3}$ is in its standard form.
Consider the rational number $\frac{10}{-15}$
This rational numbner can be expressed in standerd form as follows:
$\frac{10}{-15}=\frac{10\times(-1)}{-15\times(-1)}=\frac{-10}{15}$ (Multiplying numerator and denominator by $-1$ to make denominator positive)
$HCF$ of $10$ and $15 = 5$
Dividing the numeator and denominator of $\frac{-10}{15}$ by $5,$
We have:
$\frac{-10}{15}=\frac{-10\div5}{15\div5}=\frac{-2}{3}$
Thus, the standard form of $\frac{-10}{15}$ is $\frac{-2}{3},$ which is same as the given rational number.
So, the rational number equal to $\frac{-2}{3}$ is $\frac{-10}{15}$
Let us check why options $(a)$ and $(c)$ are not correct.
The standard form of $\frac{-10}{25}\text{ is }\frac{-2}{5}$
$HCF$ of $10$ and $25 = 5$
Dividing the numerator and denominator of $=\frac{-10}{25}$ by $5,$
We have:
$\frac{-10}{25}=\frac{-10\div5}{25\div5}=\frac{-2}{5}$
The standard form of $\frac{-9}{6}\text{ is }\frac{-3}{2}$
$HCF$ of $6$ and $9 = 3$
Dividing the numerator and denominator of $\frac{-9}{3}$by $3,$
We have:
$\frac{-9}{6}=\frac{-9\div3}{6\div2}=\frac{-3}{2}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b)$
