Rational Numbers – Subtraction In this tutorial, we will learn the operation of subtraction of rational numbers. If we add the additive inverse of a rational number and other rational number then this is called subtraction of two rational numbers. Subtraction is inverse process of addition. If a/b and c/d are two rational numbers, then […]

Property of Rational Numbers – Additive Identity and Additive Inverse There are two basic additive properties of rational numbers. (1) Additive Identity Property (2) Additive Inverse Property (1) Additive Identity Property: Additive identity of rational numbers states that the sum of any rational number (a/b) and zero is the rational number itself. Suppose a/b is […]

                 Additive Inverse Definition: In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number is what we add to a number to create the sum of zero.  So in other words, we can say that the additive inverse of x is -x, which is equal and opposite in sign to it. […]

 Positive Integers on Number Line A number line shows positive integers on the right side of the zero.  We understand the concept in a better way with the help of examples.   Example: Below number line represents integer 4 an d 4 is a positive integer, so, 4 is right side of 0.       […]
