The number falls between [tex]-\frac{25}{4}[/tex] and - 400 % is [tex]-\frac{43}{8}[/tex] = 5.375
first we convert fraction into decimal number
[tex]-\frac{25}{4}[/tex] = - 6.25
and for remove percentage we divide by 100
- 400 % = - 4
from choose the option,
[tex]-\frac{43}{8}[/tex] = 5.375
- 720 % = - 7.2
[tex]-\frac{20}{3}[/tex] = - 6.6
then, choose [tex]-\frac{43}{8}[/tex]
therefore, number lies between [tex]-\frac{25}{4}[/tex] and - 400 % is [tex]-\frac{43}{8}[/tex] = 5.375
A fraction is any number of the form a/b where both “a” and “b” are whole numbers and b≠0. On the other hand, a rational number is a number which is in the form of p/q where both “p” and “q” are integers and q≠0.
Thus, a fraction is written in the form of m/n, where n is not 0 and m & n are whole (or natural numbers). For example, 12/23, 10/32, 12/10, 4/21. A rational number can also be written in the form of a/b, where b is not 0 and a & b are integers. For example, 15/7, -18/13, 3/-7, -6/-12.
All fractions can be termed as rational numbers; however, all rational numbers cannot be termed as fractions. Only those rational numbers in which ‘p’ and ‘q’ are positive integers are termed as fractions. Let a/b be any fraction. Now, a and b are natural numbers. Since all natural numbers are also integers, a and b are also integers. Thus, the fraction a/b is the quotient of 2 integers such that b ≠ 0. Hence, a/b is a rational number. One of the examples in which a number is a rational number but not a fraction is:
Consider the fraction 12/-32. It is a rational number but not a fraction because its denominator (n) is not a natural number.
A fraction is expressed in the form of the ratio of whole numbers, a/b and b≠0.
A rational number is also expressed in the form of a ratio, p/q, where numerator and denominator are integers and q≠0.
