Find three rational numbers equivalent to each of the following rational numbers.
(i) (-2)/5
(ii) 3/7
(i) (-2/5) = (-2 × 2)/(5 × 2) = -4/10
(-2/5) = (-2 × 3)/(5 × 3) = -6/15
(-2/5) = (-2 × 4)/(5 × 4) = -8/20
Hence, the required rational numbers are -4/10, -6/15, and -8/20.
(ii) (3/7) = (3 × 2)/(7 × 2) = 6/14
(3/7) = (3 × 3)/(7 × 3) = 9/21
(3/7) = (3 × 4)/(7 × 4) = 12/28
Hence, the required rational numbers are 6/14, 9/21, and 12/28.
