I. Introduction
p
Previously we defined a rational as a number that can be expresses in the form w h ere p , q ∈ Z∧q ≠ 0.
q
Based on this definition, the first thing that would come to mind is, of course, fractions - numbers that represent part of a
whole or a set. Fractions are indeed part of the set of rational numbers; natural numbers and integers. After all, each of
these sets contains elements which can be expressed in fraction form. This modules deal also with square roots, subsets
of real numbers, the rational and irrational numbers.

III. Lesson Proper
Pre – Test: Define the following terms:
1. Rational Number
2. Irrational Number
3. Imaginary Number
4. Square root
5. Number line
Week 5 Set of Fractions and Decimals
Open your textbook on pages 80 – 94 and study the different types of fractions and fundamental operations on rational
numbers.
Rational numbers can be represented in decimal forms rather than representing in fractions. They can easily be
represented as decimals by just dividing numerator 'p' by denominator 'q' (as rational numbers is in the form of p/q).
A rational number can be expressed as a terminating or nonterminating, recurring decimal.
For changing fraction form to decimal form and vice versa, you may click the link below for you to watch the
step by step process.

Week 6 Square Root
Open your book on page 103 and 104 about the definition of the square root of a real number. You may watch the video
using the link below about extracting square root of real numbers.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_zIjMICB3k
The square root of a number is represented as:
√ n=a
Where: n=the number called radicand
√ ❑=the radical sign
a=the square root of the number , n
See page 104, example 2.56
Note: The positive square root is called the principal square root and will be used as the square root of the positive real
numbers.
Activity 2: Answer Math Skills in Focus, page 103.
Remember:
Real numbers include the square root of a number. This means that the square root of a real number may be a
rational or an irrational number.
A perfect square number has two equal factors. One of its factors is equal to its square root.
√ 0=0
The square root of a perfect square is a rational number.
The square root of an imperfect square is an irrational number.
The square root of negative real numbers is not a real number. It is an imaginary number, one that does not
exist.
Finding the square root without using calculator, see pages 105 – 108. Study the given example in your book. This shows
how to estimates the square root of a number to the nearest hundredths and present how to determine between what
two integers the square root of a number is. You may also watch the links below to understand more the lesson.

Activity 3: Answer Progress check, page 111
A item 1 – 6
B item 1 – 5 only
Week 7 Locating Square Root of a Given Number on the Number Line
Locating Square Root of a Given Number on the Number Line, see pages 109 – 110. The examples are presented clearly
in your book.
Activity 4: Answer Progress check, page 111
C item 1 – 5 only
Week 8 Subsets of Real Numbers
Go back to pages 48 – 51 and find out and study the following terms stated below.
Rational number
Irrational number
Integers
Whole numbers Real Numbers
Natural numbers
Terminating decimals
Repeating decimals
Fractions
Then study the figures below as an illustration about subsets of real numbers.
Activity 5: Complete the table on page 51.
Ordering Rational Numbers
Using the number line, numbers to the right of zero increases while numbers to the left of zero decreases. This means
that all negative numbers are less than zero and all positive numbers are greater than zero. A number line is shown
below.
You may arrange rational numbers in increasing order (ascending) which means from lowest to greatest while decreasing
order (descending) means from greatest to lowest form. An example is presented on page 70, example 2. 25. You may
watch also the link below for additional illustrations of arranging rational numbers.

Activity 6: Plot the following rational numbers on the given number line below and arrange in decreasing order.
