Five rational numbers between -3 and -5

Recall the concept:

Rational numbers are the numbers that can be expressed in the form $\frac{p}{q}$, where p and q are integers and q≠0

All the terminating and non-terminating recurring decimals are rational numbers

Solution:

Five terminating decimal numbers between -3 and -5 are

-3.25,-3.5,-3.75,-4,-4.25,

Since all the terminating decimals can be expressed in the form $\frac{p}{q}$, all the terminating decimals are rational numbers
