Answer 1

Answer :-

F. The sum of two ration number is a rational number.

• True

Eg - 1/2 + (-1)/3

3 - 2/3 = 1/3

False. Because 0 can't be represented as p/q form.

H. The product of two rational numbers is also a rational number.

True.

Eg - 1/2 × 3/4 = 3/8

J.The opposite of a rational number is also a rational number.

True. Eg - 1/2 and 2/1

Answer 2

The rational numbers are the numbers can be expressed in the form of

• r = p/q

Let's see the answer choices:

F The sum of two rational numbers is also a rational number

• This is TRUE

G 0 is not a rational number.

• This is FALSE as 0 can be expressed in the form of r= p/q, where p = 0

H The product of two rational numbers is also a rational number.

• This is TRUE

J The opposite of a rational number is also a rational number.
