Solution

Given rational number is -8-36.

Here numerator and denominator both are negative so we have to multiply both numerator and denominator by -1.

-8×-1-36×-1=836

Here numerator is 8 and denominator is 36.

Prime factors of 8 and 36 are as follows:

8=2×2×236=2×2×3×3

HCF of 8 and 36 is 4.

Now divide the numerator and denominator of 836 by HCF 4, we get:

8÷436÷4=29

Therefore the standard form of -8-36 is 29.
