Concept- Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction or part of a whole number. Firstly we’ll take the LCM of all the denominators and then multiply all the given numbers with the LCM in order to find ascending order. Taking the LCM of the denominators of all rational numbers.
The denominators are 3, 9 and 3.
3= 1×3
9= 3×3
3= 1×3
LCM = 3×3×1= 9
As the LCM of denominator is 9. We have to make the denominator of all rational numbers equal to 9.
(1×3) (3×3) =39
-2×19×1=-29
-4×33×3= -129
Now, the denominator of each number is the same. We can arrange the numbers in ascending order.
3>-2>-12
Therefore, we can say that 39>-29>-129
Thus,the ascending order of given rational number is 13>-29>-43.
Hence, correct answer is 1) 13>-29>-43
