Question

find a rational number between lying 2/8and 2/5

Answer 1

!!!

given 2/8 and 2/5

we have to find a rational number between them.

so first of all, we have to find the lcm of their denominators.

lcm of 8 and 5 = 8 * 5 = 40

⇒ 2/8 = (2 * 5)/(8 * 5) = 10/40

⇒ 2/5 = (2 * 8)/(2 * 8) = 16/40

hence rational numbers between them are 11/40, 12/40, 13/40, 14/40 ans 15/40

u can choose any one.
