Answer 1

Answer:

5.5, 5.25 and 5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first take out the average of these two numbers.

(5+6)/2

11/2

=5.5

So we have got one rational number between 5 and 6.

Let's take out the average of 5 & 5.5 and 5.5 & 6 too separately to get two more.

So,

(5+5.5)/2

10.5/2

=5.25

And...

(5.5+6)/2

11.5/2

=5.75

Haha great!!

So here we have got three!

Which are...5.5, 5.25 and 5.75.

I hope you understood my answer well.

If no, do ask me.

Thank you
