A rational number is a positive or negative FraCtional number, or a whole\r\n" );
document.write( "number because because you can always make a whole number into a fraction by\r\n" );
document.write( "putting it over 1.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Since both given fractions have 11 in the denominator, think of all the\r\n" );
document.write( "numerators between the numerator of the first, -3, and the numerator of the\r\n" );
document.write( "second, which is 8.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The integers between -3 and 8 are these:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "-3, -2, -1,  0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "so use them as numerators and give each one a denominator of 11:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "-3/11, -2/11, -1/11,  0/11,  1/11,  2/11,  3/11,  4/11,  5/11,  6/11,  7/11,  8/11\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Only one of those reduces.  0/11 is just 0\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So pick any 6 of those fractions between the first one and the last one.\r\n" );
