Find two rational numbers whose absolute value is 1/5.

Solution:

Absolute value is represented as |x| = x

So, for the rational number 1/5, absolute value can be 1/5

For -1/5 also, the absolute value can be 1/5.

Hence, 1/5, -1/5 are the two required rational numbers

✦ Try This: Find two rational numbers whose absolute value is 2/3

Absolute value is represented as |x| = x

So, for the rational number 2/3, absolute value can be 2/3

For -2/3 also, absolute value can be 2/3

Hence, 2/3, -2/3 are two required rational numbers
