Question

Find the five rational number between 1 by 2 and 2 by 3

Answer 1

Answer:

Two fractions 1/2 and 2/3.

To find:

Five rational numbers between the given two fractions.

Solution:

To answer this question, first of all, we should know that a number is said to be a rational number if it can be written in the form of p/q.

Now,

as given

we have two fractions 1/2 and 2/3.

First of all, we will make the denominators of given fractions the the the the same.

So,

On multiplying 3 and 2 in both numerator and denominator of 1/2 and 2/3 respectively, we get

Now, to find 'n' rational numbers between two numbers, we will multiply n + 1 in both the numerator and denominator of the given two numbers.

So,

five rational numbers between 3/6 and 4/6 are

=

Hence, five rational numbers between 1/2 and 2/3 are 19/36, 20/36, 21/36, 22/36 and 23/36.
