find five rational numbers between 2/3 and 5/8
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The rational numbers between a and B is a+b/2.
Here,
a= 2/3 and b = 5/8
Then,
(2/3 + 5/8)/2
= (16 + 15/24)/2. L.C.M.= 24
= (31/24)/2
= 31/24×2
= 31/48.
(2/3 + 31/48)/2
= ( 32 + 31/48)/2. L.C.M.= 48
= ( 63/48)/2
= 63/48×2
= 63/96.
(2/3 + 63/96)/2
= (64 + 63/96)/2. L.C.M.= 96
= (127/96)/2
= 127 /96 ×2
= 127/192.
(2/3 + 127/192)/2
= (128 + 127/192)/2. L.C.M.=192
= (255/192)/2
= 255/192×2
= 255/ 384.
(2/3 + 255/384)/2
= (256 + 255/384)/2. L.C.M.=384
= (511/384)/2
= 511/384 × 2
= 511/768.
Therefore, the three rational numbers between 2/3 and 5/8 are 31/48, 63/96, 127/192, 255/384,511/768.
