should not be zero. Thus, a number of the form pq where p and q are integers
                         and q≠0 is a rational number.


                         (a) both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of
                         Assertion.
                         (b) both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation
                         of Assertion.
                         (c) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
                         (d) Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
               12        Assertion: If x,y,z be rational numbers such that x>y and y>z, then x>z
                         Reason: The sum of two rational numbers is always greater than third rational numbers.

                         (a) both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
                         (b) both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of
                         Assertion.
                         (c) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
                         (d) Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.

               13        Aditya who is working in a multinational company earns ₹150000per month. Out of

                         his earnings he spend 1/10th on food items, 1/4th on shopping with family, 1/5th of
                         remaining on education of his two kids and rest of his money he puts in his savings.
                         Based on this information answer the following questions
                         i). How much money he spends on food items?
                         (a) 15000
                         (b) 1500
                         (c) 1050
                         (d) 10500
                         ii). How much money he spend on shopping?
                         (a) 32000
                         (b) 37500
                         (c) 25000
                         (d) 27500
                         iii). How much money was left with him after spending on food and shopping?
                         iv).Calculate the amount spend by Aditya on education of children?
               14        Mr. Sharma, the maths teacher of class VIII asked four students, of his class to write a
                         rational number. The students write a rational number in such a way that the rational
                         numbers written by two of them are equivalent. The rational number written by the
                         third student is in its simplest form; and the fourth student writes a rational number
                         whose reciprocal is not defined. Based on the above information answer the
                         following questions.
                        i.       If student 1 writes the rational number −2/9; write a possible equivalent
                         rational number.
                        ii.       What is the rational number written by fourth student?
                       iii.      What is the simplest form of the rational number  -34/85 ?
