How do you identify opposite and absolute value of a rational number?
how do you identify opposite and absolute value of a rational number
What number can you divide a rational number to get a number that is twice the opposite of the rational number?
You would need to divide by -1/2.
What is the sum of any rational number and its opposite explain?
If the opposite is meant to be the additive opposite and not the multiplicative opposite, then their sum is zero. The reason is that is what defines an additive opposite!
When it went off absolute value and the opposite of a rational number equal?
When the number is non-positive.
Must the opposite of a rational number be a rational number?
No. A rational number is one that may be represented as a simple multiple, or a division. Such as one times seven, or three times seven; OR one divided by seven, or three divided by seven. Or similar.A rational number, if a fraction, when multiplied by the divisor of the fraction, will give a simple whole number. e.g. 7/5, when multiplied by 5 becomes the whole number 7.An irrational number is one that cannot be formed by a simple ratio, or a simple division. e and pi are a couple of common irrational numbers. [irrational demonstrates where the name comes from.]No number can be found which will convert them, by multiplication, into a whole number.
