Compare rational numbers 0 and $\frac{-7}{6}$.


To do: Compare the two rational numbers  0 and $\frac{-7}{6}$.


Solution:

0 is a rational number. It is neither positive nor negative.

$\frac{-7}{6}$ is a negative rational number.

Negative numbers lie to the left of zero on the number line.

Since they lie to the left of zero on the number line, negative numbers are always lesser or smaller than 0

So $\frac{-7}{6}$ < 0.


This is the comparison between rational numbers $\frac{-7}{6}$ and 0.
