01 A Quick Introduction to Variables
In Python, a variable is essentially a name or a label that refers to a value or stored data. You can think of a variable as a basket in real life used to keep track of information in your program. Variables temporarily store data in the computer’s memory. Variables are created when they are first assigned a value. An assignment statement creates a new variable and gives it a value. For example, price = 10 creates a variable named price and assigns it the integer value 10. Similarly, x = 6 creates a variable x with the value 6.

1. Which of the following option(s) is(are) true? Solution Based on the sources and our conversation history, we can determine which of the given inequalities between fractions are true by finding a common denominator and comparing the numerators. Rational numbers, which include fractions, can be written in the form p/q. To compare two fractions which have different denominators, there is no way to directly compare them. The only way is to convert them into equivalent fractions such that they have the same denominator. A number that is a multiple of both denominators can be used as the common denominator. Once the denominators are the same, you can add the numerators, or in this case, compare them.
