Well, 1/3 is less than 1/2 and the distance from 1/3 to 1/2 (on the number line) is 1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6 which is about 0.1666, so here are 16 rational numbers between them: 1/3 + 1/100, 1/3+2/100, 1/3+3/100, 1/3+4/100, 1/3+5/100, … , 1/3 + 16/100.

If you simplify those you get the rational numbers:

103/300, 53/150, 109/300, 28/75, 23/60, 59/150, 121/300, 31/75, 127/300, 13/30, 133/300, 34/75, 139/300, 71/150, 29/60, 37/75

all of which are between 1/3 and 1/2.
