Odd number → negative. Same for ÷.ADD & SUBTRACTSame signs → add the sizes, keep the sign.−3.4 + (−1.2) = −4.6Different signs → subtract, keep the bigger sign.−5/6 + 1/3 = −5/6 + 2/6 = −3/6 = −1/2Subtracting is adding the opposite: a − b = a + (−b).FRACTION · DECIMAL · PERCENT1/2= 0.5= 50%1/4= 0.25= 25%1/3= 0.333…= 33⅓%2/5= 0.4= 40%3/8= 0.375= 37.5%5/6= 0.8333…= 83⅓%Operations with Rational Numberslittleactivity.com
