Question

Write the following integers as rational numbers:

$-3$

Answer 1

A rational number is defined as a number that can be expressed in the form $\frac{\mathrm{p}}{\mathrm{q}}$ where $\mathrm{p}$ (numerator) and $\mathrm{q}$ (denominator) are integers $(\mathrm{q}\ne 0)$.

So, $-3$can be written as $\frac{-3}{1}$, where $\mathrm{p}=-3$ and $\mathrm{q}=1$

Hence,$-3$ can be written in the form of rational number as $\frac{-3}{1}$.
