What procedure will find the sum a+b of two numbers where a and b represent any integer?

As rational number includes natural number, whole number ,integers  also.

⇒Natural number(1,2,3,4) is a rational number also.

So, when A= Natural number , B=Any other natural number

Just add two natural number using simple law of addition.

⇒As Whole numbers(0,1,2,3,...) are Rational number also.

So If A=any whole number, B=Any other whole number

Add the whole number in any order using law of addition.

⇒Coming to integers (-123,-5,...-1,12,59,) By taking any two integers ,

1. Both of them are positive add using simple law of addition.

2. One of them is positive and other is negative , if larger one has positive sign before it just subtract smaller one from larger one and put positive sign before the result.and if larger one has negative sign before it ,subtract smaller one from larger one and put negative sign before the result.

⇒If both of them are negative , just add the two integers and apply negative sign before the result.

4. Rational number as fractions ,

A=m/n and B=p/q

A+B=m/n + p/q

find LCM of n and q.

If n and q are co-prime multiply n and q to get the LCM.For example if n=5, q=7, then LCM=5×7=35

If n and q are not co-prime find the factors of n and q .take out the common factors and then multiply the common factors with those factors which are not common.

For example, n=15, q=20

15=5×3

20=2×2×5

common factor=5

non common factor=2,2,3

LCM=5×2×2×3=60

Suppose LCM(n,q)= K

⇒p/q+m/n

=

So ,

which is the way to find LCM of rational number when theyare fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
