Question

What other way can -4 be represented as a rational number?
A. -24/6
B. ➗144/3
C. 1/4
D. -➗12/3

Answer 1

To determine which options represent -4 as a rational number, we need to evaluate each one:

A. \(-\frac{24}{6}\): This simplifies to \(-4\). Thus, this option represents -4.

B. \(-\frac{144}{3}\): This simplifies to \(-48\). Thus, this option does not represent -4.

C. \(\frac{1}{4}\): This does not represent -4.

D. \(-\frac{12}{3}\): This simplifies to \(-4\). Thus, this option also represents -4.

The correct options representing -4 as a rational number are:
- A. \(-\frac{24}{6}\)
- D. \(-\frac{12}{3}\)

So, the answer would be A and D.
