Answer
(i)
⇒ The numerator is negative and the denominator is positive (opposite signs), making it a negative rational number.
Hence, it is not a positive rational number.
(ii)
⇒ The signs are opposite, so it is a negative rational number.
Hence, it is not a positive rational number.
(iii)
⇒ Both the numerator and denominator are negative, the signs cancel out (), making the value positive.
Hence, it is a positive rational number.
(iv)
⇒ The value is 0, and zero is neither positive nor negative.
Hence, it is not a positive rational number.
(v)
⇒ The value is 0, and zero is neither positive nor negative.
Hence, it is not a positive rational number.
