1. RATIONAL NUMBERS
If the above apples are share among
two children how many apples does each child
will get
Is it two

2. ●
● If one apple has to be shared by two children what we

Where each part is known as half denoted by 1/2

3. .

● If three apples has to be shared by two children what we have
to do ?
The above three apples shared as one apple each and the
third apple is made into two equal parts
Where each share is known as one and half denoted by 1 ½
or 3/2

4. ● Similarly if any whole is to be shared among more
than one then each share/part is known as Fraction
● Since this sharing is equal among all, it is also
known as Rational division and each share is also
known as Rational Number.
● Ex: 5 divided among 4 = 5/4
10 /7
3/8
4/11
