Answer:
4 rational numbers between 2/5 and 1/2 is (21/50), (22/50), (23/50), (24/50).
Step-by-step explanation:
First we must make the rational numbers in terms of like fractions, where their denominator must be equal.
2/5 and 1/2
Finding LCM of 5 and 2
LCM = 10
2/5 = (2/5) × 2/2
2/5 = (2 × 2)/(5 × 2)
2/5 = 4/10
Similarly,
1/2 = (1/2) × 5/5
1/2 = (1 × 5)/(2 × 5)
1/2 = 5/10
Thus,
Now our Question becomes,
Find 4 rational numbers between 4/10 and 5/10
Now, to find 4 rational numbers, we must multiply the next whole number with both the fractions.
Here, the next whole number after 4 is 5
Thus,
(4/10) × 5/5 = (4 × 5)/(10 × 5)
= 20/50
Next,
(5/10) × 5/5 = (5 × 5)/(10 × 5)
= 25/50
Thus,
Now the 4 rational numbers between 20/50 and 25/50 is
(21/50), (22/50), (23/50), (24/50)
Thus,
4 rational numbers between 2/5 and 1/2 is (21/50), (22/50), (23/50), (24/50).
