The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will compare the given rational numbers step by step and fill in the blanks with the correct symbols (greater than `gt`, equal to `=`, or less than `lt`). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Part (i):** Compare \(-\frac{3}{7}\) and \(\frac{6}{-13}\). - Convert both fractions to have a common denominator: - \(-\frac{3}{7} = -\frac{39}{91}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 13) - \(\frac{6}{-13} = -\frac{42}{91}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 7) - Now compare \(-\frac{39}{91}\) and \(-\frac{42}{91}\): - Since \(-39 > -42\), we have \(-\frac{3}{7} > \frac{6}{-13}\). - **Answer:** \(-\frac{3}{7} \gt \frac{6}{-13}\) 2. **Part (ii):** Compare \(\frac{5}{-13}\) and \(-\frac{35}{91}\). - Convert \(\frac{5}{-13}\) to a common denominator: - \(\frac{5}{-13} = -\frac{35}{91}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 7) - Now compare \(-\frac{35}{91}\) and \(-\frac{35}{91}\): - They are equal. - **Answer:** \(\frac{5}{-13} = -\frac{35}{91}\) 3. **Part (iii):** Compare \(-2\) and \(-\frac{13}{5}\). - Convert \(-2\) to a fraction: \(-2 = -\frac{10}{5}\). - Now compare \(-\frac{10}{5}\) and \(-\frac{13}{5}\): - Since \(-10 > -13\), we have \(-2 > -\frac{13}{5}\). - **Answer:** \(-2 \gt -\frac{13}{5}\) 4. **Part (iv):** Compare \(-\frac{2}{3}\) and \(-\frac{5}{8}\). - Convert both fractions to a common denominator (24): - \(-\frac{2}{3} = -\frac{16}{24}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 8) - \(-\frac{5}{8} = -\frac{15}{24}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 3) - Now compare \(-\frac{16}{24}\) and \(-\frac{15}{24}\): - Since \(-16 < -15\), we have \(-\frac{2}{3} < -\frac{5}{8}\). - **Answer:** \(-\frac{2}{3} \lt -\frac{5}{8}\) 5. **Part (v):** Compare \(0\) and \(\frac{-3}{-5}\). - Simplify \(\frac{-3}{-5} = \frac{3}{5}\). - Now compare \(0\) and \(\frac{3}{5}\): - Since \(0 < \frac{3}{5}\), we have \(0 < \frac{-3}{-5}\). - **Answer:** \(0 \lt \frac{-3}{-5}\) 6. **Part (vi):** Compare \(-\frac{8}{9}\) and \(-\frac{9}{10}\). - Convert both fractions to a common denominator (90): - \(-\frac{8}{9} = -\frac{80}{90}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 10) - \(-\frac{9}{10} = -\frac{81}{90}\) (by multiplying numerator and denominator by 9) - Now compare \(-\frac{80}{90}\) and \(-\frac{81}{90}\): - Since \(-80 > -81\), we have \(-\frac{8}{9} > -\frac{9}{10}\). - **Answer:** \(-\frac{8}{9} \gt -\frac{9}{10}\) ### Final Answers: (i) \(-\frac{3}{7} \gt \frac{6}{-13}\) (ii) \(\frac{5}{-13} = -\frac{35}{91}\) (iii) \(-2 \gt -\frac{13}{5}\) (iv) \(-\frac{2}{3} \lt -\frac{5}{8}\) (v) \(0 \lt \frac{-3}{-5}\) (vi) \(-\frac{8}{9} \gt -\frac{9}{10}\)
