प्रश्न
Chhaya simplified a rational number in this manner `(-25)/(-30) = (-5)/6`. What error did the student make?
उत्तर
It a negative (–) sign comes in both numerator and denominator, then it will be cancelled.
So, the resulting fraction will be positive.
∴ `(-25)/(-30) = 25/30 = 5/6`
Here, Chhaya divided numerator by 5 but denominator by –5.
