Answer 2

Answer:

The 12 equidistant rational numbers between-1 and 2​ will be:

$0, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, -0.1, -0.2, -0.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The numbers are -1 and 2.

We have to find 12 equidistant rational numbers between-1 and 2​.

• As we know, rational numbers are the numbers that can be represented as p/q where p and q are integers and q must not be equal to zero.
• And if q is equal to 1 then the given rational number will become an integer, which means, every integer is a rational number.
• For this, we will write any 12 decimal expression that is greater than -1 and smaller than 2 to get the answer.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The numbers are -1 and 2.

As we know, 1 is smaller than 2, but in a similar case is not happening with negative numbers.

If we put a negative sign on both sides of inequality then we see that the direction of inequality reverses.

For example, 1 is smaller than 2 but -1 is greater than -2.

So, the 12 equidistant rational numbers between-1 and 2​ will be:

$0, 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, -0.1, -0.2, -0.3$
