Question

find the rational number between -5/4 and 1/6 distance away from -5/4. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b/2= -5/4+1/6/2= -15+2/12/2= -13/12×2= -13/24

Answer 2

Answer:

The rational numbers between the two are $-\frac{14}{12}, -\frac{13}{12},-\frac{11}{12},\frac{1}{12}$ etc.

Explanation:

Given:

Rational numbers are -5/4 and 1/6.

To Find:

Rational Numbers between -5/4 and 1/6.

Solution:

Take the LCM of the two numbers to make their denominator equal.

LCM= 2 x 2 x 3 = 4x 3 = 12

LCM = 12

Thus, changing the rational numbers as per LCM,

$-\frac{5}{4} * \frac{3}{3} = -\frac{15}{12}$

$\frac{1}{6} * \frac{2}{2} = \frac{2}{12}$

Thus the rational number between the two are:

$-\frac{14}{12}, -\frac{13}{12},-\frac{11}{12},\frac{1}{12}$ etc.

Definition:

LCM:

• In mathematics, the value that is equally divided by the two supplied integers is known as the LCM of any two.
• The Least Common Multiple is its full name.
• Another name for it is the Least Common Divisor (LCD). As an illustration, LCM (4, 5) = 20.
