Study Notes
Commutative Properties of Rational Numbers
- Addition is commutative for rational numbers, meaning that the order of numbers does not change the result: a + b = b + a.
- Subtraction is not commutative for rational numbers, meaning that the order of numbers changes the result: a - b ≠ b - a.
- Multiplication is commutative for rational numbers, meaning that the order of numbers does not change the result: a × b = b × a.
- Division is not commutative for rational numbers, meaning that the order of numbers changes the result: a ÷ b ≠ b ÷ a.
Rational Numbers Between Two Given Numbers
- There are countless rational numbers between any two given rational numbers.
- Example: Find three rational numbers between -2 and 0. Solution: Convert -2 and 0 to rational numbers with the same denominators, and then find rational numbers between them.
- Example: Find ten rational numbers between -5/6 and 5/8. Solution: Convert -5/6 and 5/8 to rational numbers with the same denominators, and then find rational numbers between them.
Multiplication of Rational Numbers
- The commutative property of multiplication can be used to simplify multiplication of rational numbers.
- Example: Find the value of (2 -3 × (-1 × 3 - 3)) × (- 3/5).
- Solution: Use the commutative property of multiplication to simplify the expression.
Exercise 1.1
- Problems involve using properties of rational numbers to simplify expressions.
- Examples: Find the value of expressions such as (-2 × 3/5 + 3/2 × -5/6) and (-3/7 × 2/5 - 1/2 × 3/7).
- Problems also involve finding additive inverses and multiplicative inverses of rational numbers.
