How to Multiply and Divide Rational Numbers

How to Multiply and Divide Rational Numbers


Rational numbers, the linchpin of mathematical classification, symbolize values that can be articulated as a clear ratio of two integers. The vital reminder here is that the denominator, the divisor in the ratio, should never be zero, as that would yield an undefined value, a disruption to the standardized rules of mathematics. In this discussion, we will unravel the process of multiplying and dividing rational numbers.
