Question

Find four rational numbers between -1/7 and -2/5.

Answer 1

LCM=35

(making both the denominators same)

-1/7 × 5 = -5/35

-2/5 × 7 = -14/35

rational nos. between them are-

I) -6/35
ii) -7/35
iii) -8/35
iv) -9/35
..............................up to -13/35

Answer 2

Hi ,

-1/7 = ( -1 × 5 )/( 7 × 5 ) = -5/35

-2/5 = ( -2 × 7 )/( 5 × 7 ) = -14/35

Now ,

-14/35<-13/35<-12/35<-11/35<-10/35<-5/35

Therefore ,

-13/35, -12/35, -11/35,-10/35 are four

rational numbers between ( -2/5 = -14/35 )

and ( -1/7 = -5/35 )

<----•(-14/35)--•(-13/35)--•(-12/35)--•(-11/35)--•(-10/35)--------------•(-5/35)------------->

I hope this helps you.
