Hi,
Can someone help me with the problem(s) below?:

Express each rational number as the quotient of two integers.

1. 5

2. -8
_
3. -0.3 (negative 0.3 with a repeat line over the three)

4. 11 4/5

5. 7 1/9


Below is the word problem:


Solve using any problem solving strategy:

A container has three red chips, four blue chips, and two green chips.
A player selects two chips, one at a time without putting the chip
back. How many different ways can a player select different colors?

Thanks in advance!
