  1. Given:

    • Difference of two rational numbers = -6/25
    • The Greater rational number = -4/9

    To find:

    • The smaller rational number?

    Solution:

    Let the smaller rational number be x.

    And,

    • Difference of two rational numbers is -4/9 – x.

    ⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀

    « Now, Forming an equation,

    → -4/9 – x = -6/25

    → -4/9 + 6/25 = x

    → x = -4 × 25 + 6 × 9/225

    → x = -100 + 54/225

    x = -46/225

    ∴ Hence, The smaller rational number is -46/225.
