Chapter 11, Problem 8PC

Program Plan Intro

Rational Arithmetic I

Program Plan:

• Include the required header files.
• Define the class “Rational”.
  • Define the necessary functions and variables.
  • Define an overload insertion operator “<<”.
  • Define the constructor to initialize the required variables and methods.
• Define the “reduce()” function.
  • Declare and initialize the necessary variables.
  • A loop that iterates to represent the numbers until the numbers is reduced in the simplest form.
  • A condition that evaluates the numerator and denominator based on the factor value obtained.
  • A condition to validate the sign of the number and assign it to the denominator.
• The insertion operator gets overloaded and displays the result after being reduced.
• Define the “main()” function.
  • Pass two integers for numerator and denominator and the rational numbers for the numbers that are passed gets displayed.
