    Study Notes

    Definition

    • A rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction of two integers, i.e., a/b, where a and b are integers and b ≠ 0.

    Properties

    • Closure: The set of rational numbers is closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division (except for division by zero).
    • Commutative Property: The order of rational numbers does not change the result of addition and multiplication.
    • Associative Property: The order in which rational numbers are added or multiplied does not change the result.
    • Distributive Property: Multiplication of rational numbers distributes over addition.

    Operations

    • Addition: To add two rational numbers, find a common denominator and add the numerators.
    • Subtraction: To subtract two rational numbers, find a common denominator and subtract the numerators.
    • Multiplication: To multiply two rational numbers, multiply the numerators and denominators separately.
    • Division: To divide two rational numbers, invert the second number and multiply.

    Types of Rational Numbers

    • Proper Fractions: Rational numbers with the numerator less than the denominator.
    • Improper Fractions: Rational numbers with the numerator greater than or equal to the denominator.
    • Mixed Numbers: Rational numbers with a whole number part and a proper fraction part.

    Equivalent Ratios

    • Equivalent Ratios: Two or more ratios that have the same value.
    • Simplifying Ratios: Finding the simplest form of a ratio by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.

    Real-World Applications

    • Measurement: Rational numbers are used to express measurements, such as lengths, areas, and volumes.
    • Finance: Rational numbers are used to express financial ratios, such as profit margins and interest rates.
    • Science: Rational numbers are used to express scientific measurements, such as ratios of chemicals and physical quantities.
