Question

Give three rational numbers equivalent to
$\frac{-3}{4}$.
[3 marks]

Answer 1

Given rational number is $\frac{-3}{4}$
So, the equivalent rational numbers are
$\frac{-3\times 2}{4\times 2}=\frac{-6}{8},\frac{-3\times 3}{4\times 3}=\frac{-9}{12}$ and $\frac{-3\times 4}{4\times 4}=\frac{-12}{16}$

Hence, three equivalent rational numbers are $\frac{-6}{8},\frac{-9}{12}$ and $\frac{-12}{16}$.
(3 $\times$ 1 = 3 marks)
