    Number system Exercise 1


    Question 1
    Is zero a rational number? Can you write it in the form p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠0?

    Solution:
    Yes. Zero is a rational number as it can be represented as 0/1 or 0/2…

    Question 2
    Find six rational numbers between 3 and 4.

    Solution

    The six rational numbers

    3.1 , 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6

    Question 3
    Find five rational numbers between 3/5 and 4/5

    Solution:

    We need to find five rational numbers

    So we multiply the denominator and numerator by (5+1) both the numbers

    3/5= 18/30
    4/5=24/30

    So rational numbers will be in increasing order


    19/30
    20/30
    21/30
    22/30
    23/30

    Question 4
    State whether the following statements are true or false. Give reasons for your answers.
    (i) Every natural number is a whole number.
    (ii) Every integer is a whole number.
    (iii) Every rational number is a whole number

    Solution:
    (i) True; since the collection of whole numbers contains all natural numbers.
    (ii) False; as integers may be negative but whole numbers are positive. For example: −3 is an integer but
    not a whole number.
    (iii) False; as rational numbers may be fractional but whole numbers may not be
