Show that the number –0.88 is a rational number by finding a ratio of two integers equal to the number.

This can be done with how you read decimals in place value (tenths, hundredths, thousandths, and so forth).

Our number is -0.88, which has 8 in the tens and hundredths place, or, 88 hundredths.

Write the hundredths part as the denominator, the first part as your numerator.

= -88 / 100

That satisfies the definition of a rational number, because both -88 and 100 are integers and we have a ratio between them. Further, we are not dividing by zero.

the answer is 175.4379

step-by-step explanation:

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
