Question

Express the following integer as a rational number with denominator $7$. (i)$5$​

Answer 1

We know that,
If $p$ and $q$ is an integer and $q\ne 0$, then the number of the form $\frac{p}{q}$ is called a rational number.

Given , number is $5$.

And $5$ can be written as:
$5=\frac{5}{1}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{5}{1}=\frac{5\times 7}{1\times 7}$

[Using the concept of an equivalent rational number]

$=\frac{35}{7}$

Hence, the required rational number is $\frac{35}{7}$.
