Question

Find 4 rational numbers between 1/3 and 1/2 using the mean method.

Answer 1

Answer:

5/12

7/12

8/12

15/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of 1/3 and 1/2

= (1/3 + 1/2) ÷ 2

= 5/6 ÷2

= 5/12

Mean of 1/3 and 5/6

= (1/3 + 5/6) ÷ 2

= 7/6 ÷ 2

= 7/12

Mean of 5/6 and 1/2

= (5/6 + 1/2) ÷ 2

= 8/6 ÷ 2

= 8/12

Mean of 7/12 and 8/12

= (7/12 + 8/12) ÷ 2

= 15/12 ÷ 2

= 15/24
