Answer:
It's really so simple.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the denominators of the numbers. i.e. 4 and 5.
LCM of 4, 5= 20.
Make them like fractions by multiplying them to make denominator to 20.
1/4 x 5/5 = 5/20.
2/5 x 4/4 = 8/20.
Now, we get only 3 numbers but we need 5.
So, multiply both the numbers with 6.
5/20 x 6/6= 30/120.
8/20 x 6/6= 48/120.
Now we have so many numbers between these, you can note any five.
For example you can note: 31/120, 32/120, 33/120, 34/120, 35/120.
You can also note numbers between 30/120 and 48/120 other than these.
Hope it helped you!
