Using suitable properties of rational numbers, evaluate the following-
(a) 4/3 + 3/5 + -2/5 + -11/5
(b) -5/9 × 4/5 - 1/54 - 3/10 × -5/9
a)
From associative and commutative law if follows that we can arrange the terms in suitable way.
Hence rearranging it gives
b)
Using distributive law
a(b+c)= ab +ac
and commutative law a+b=b+a
we can rearrange it as follow
