In Ana's lunchbox, she has 8 green grapes and 6 purple grapes. In João's lunchbox, he has 4 grapes of each color. If they combine all the grapes and divide them equally between them, who will have more grapes, Ana or João? Write two different addition equations that result in the same total number of grapes to help Ana and João divide the grapes fairly.

Imagine you are helping your younger brother with a Math assignment. He asked you what a rational number is. Explain to him, in a simple way, what a rational number is. Remember to mention the different ways a rational number can be written, such as fractions, decimal numbers, and recurring decimals.

In a civil engineering project, an architect needs to divide a rectangular plot of land into two equal parts for the construction of two semi-detached houses. The coordinates of the vertices of the land on the Cartesian plane are A(0, 0), B(30, 0), C(30, 20), and D(0, 20). Using concepts of analytic geometry, determine the coordinates of the point that represents the midpoint of side CD of the land, which will be the dividing point between the two new properties. Then, verify if the obtained midpoint point is indeed on segment CD, ensuring the accuracy of the project. Explain the reasoning used to determine the coordinates and to verify the positioning of the midpoint on the land.
