From this session you can learn::
Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. They can be positive, negative, or zero. Rational numbers can be represented in various forms, including fractions, decimals, and percentages. You would have studied the properties of rational numbers, such as closure, commutative, associative, identity, and inverse properties. These properties help understand how rational numbers behave under operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Comparing rational numbers involves finding a common denominator or converting them to decimals. You would have learned techniques for comparing and ordering rational numbers using concepts like greater than (>), less than (<), and equal to (=).
Rational numbers can also be represented on a number line. You would have explored how to plot rational numbers on a number line and determine their distances. The concept of absolute value applies to rational numbers, allowing you to find the distance between a rational number and zero.
Overall, the study of rational numbers in Class 8 provides a foundation for understanding number systems, operations, and comparisons, which are essential in various mathematical applications. So don't miss the session.
