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 […]
