Question

find five rational number lying between 1/5and 1/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

25/120, 26/120, 27/120, 28/120, 29/120

Step-by-step explanation:

five fractions between 1/5 and 1/4

first make the factorise denominators

1/5 x 4/4 and 1/4 x5/5

= 4/20 and 5/20

now multiply both the factions with 6/6 (as we need five fractions between them)

4/20 x 6/6 = 24/120 and 5/20 x 6/6 = 30/120

hence there is 25/120, 26/120, 27/120, 28/120, 29/120 between 1/4 and 1/5

(to confirm the answer u can check by reducing it to the simplest form)

Answer 2

Convert the given two fraction with the same denominator 20 [LCM of 4 & 5]

1/5=4/20 and 1/4=5/20

As we have to find five rational numbers between them multiply both the

numerator and denominator by 6 (5+1)

4/20*6/6=24/120 and 5/20*6/6=30/120

Now the rational numbers are 25/120.26/120,27/120,28/120, 29/120

i.e 5/24.13/60,9/40,7/30,29/120

Note If you want to find ’n’ rational numbers multiply both numerator and

denominator of equal factions by (n+1)
