Example Questions

Example Question #13 : Irrational Numbers

Add the following: $\frac{\pi}{e} + \frac{e}{\pi}$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{\pi+e}{e\pi}$

$\frac{\pi^2+e^2}{e\pi}$

$\frac{2\pi+2e}{e\pi}$

$\pi+e$

Correct answer:

$\frac{\pi^2+e^2}{e\pi}$

Explanation:

To add the numerator, first multiply the denominator to find the least common denominator.

The common denominator is: $e\pi$

Rewrite the fractions.

$\frac{\pi}{e} + \frac{e}{\pi} = \frac{\pi(\pi)}{e(\pi)} + \frac{e(e)}{\pi(e)} = \frac{\pi^2+e^2}{e\pi}$

Example Question #11 : Irrational Numbers

Which of the following choices is irrational?

Possible Answers:

3.14159

2.718

log(10)

$\sqrt{144}$

$2\pi$

Correct answer:

$2\pi$

Explanation:

The meaning of irrational states that numbers cannot be rewritten as a ratio of integers. Of the following that could be simplified, the only possible choice of irrational numbers is $2\pi$ .

The answer is $2\pi$ .

All other options are rational because they can be written as either a fraction of integers or just an integer.

log(10)=1

$3.14159=\frac{314159}{100000}$

$2.718=\frac{2718}{1000}$

$\sqrt{144}=\pm12$

Example Question #12 : Grade 8

Which of the following is an irrational number?

Possible Answers:

1.56

$\sqrt2$

$\sqrt4$

Correct answer:

$\sqrt2$

Explanation:

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction where both the numerator and denominator are integers. The denominator also cannot be equal to 0. In this set, the irrational number is $\sqrt2$ because the There is no fraction that can be made, it's decimal goes on and on and does not repeat in a pattern. Using the fraction test, we can prove that the following numbers are rational:

$\sqrt4=2=\frac{2}{1}$

$7=\frac{7}{1}$

$1.56=\frac{156}{100}=\frac{39}{25}$

$\sqrt2=1.414213562373095.....$

Example Question #1 : How To Plot Fractions On A Number Line

Plot the fraction $-\frac{7}{3}$ on the number line.

Possible Answers:

Question_11_correct

Question_11_incorrect_2

Question_11_incorrect_3

Question_11_incorrect_1

Correct answer:

Question_11_correct

Explanation:

The fraction $-\frac{7}{3}$ is less than and greater than , so it must fall between those points on the number line. Negative numbers are to the left of while positive numbers are to the right.

$-\frac{7}{3}=-2\frac{1}{3}$

Because $\frac{1}{3}$ is less than $\frac{1}{2}$ , the point must be closer to than .
