Find
five rational numbers between 5/6
and 4/11
Answers
Answer:
< -5/6 < -4/6 < -3/6 < -2/6 < -1/6 < 0/6. => - 1 < -5/6 < -2/3 < -1/2 < -1/3 < -1/6 .
Answer:
Question: What are the rational numbers between 4 and 5?!
Remember: A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, that is, it can be expressed as a/b, where both a and b are integers and b does not equal zero; The fraction 1/5 satisfies the definition of a rational number because both 1 and 5 are integers, and it is already expressed in the required form of a/b, i.e., 1/5. Other examples of rational numbers are: 1/2, 3/4, 22/7, 5 = 5/1, and -.6 = -6/10 = -3/5.
Answer to the given question: There are an INFINITE NUMBER of rational numbers between 4 and 5.
For example: Just between 4 to 4.1, alone, we have:
From greater to lesser:
4.1 (1 decimal place) = 4 and 1/10 = 41/10
4.01 (2 decimal places) = 4 and 1/100 = 401/100
4.001 (3 decimal places) = 4 and 1/1000 = 4001/1000
4.0001 (4 decimal places) = 4 and 1/10000 = 40001/10000
4.00001 (5 decimal places = 4 and 1/100000 = 400001/100000
4.000001 (6 decimal places) = 4 and 1/1000000 = 4000001/1000000
4.0000001 (7 decimal places)= 4 and 1/10000000 = 40000001/10000000
4.00000001 (8 decimal places) = 4 and 1/100000000 = 400000001/100000000

4.0000000000000000000000000000 ...00000000000001 (n decimal places) where n is a positive integer that can be as large as you want!
