Question

Find three rational number between: (_1/3) and (1/2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Three rational numbers between 1/3 and 1/2 making the denominator same: 1/3=8/24(equivalent fraction) 1/2=12/24(also equivalent fraction). Three rational numbers between 8/24 and 12/24 are: 9/24,10/24,11/24.

Answer 2

Answer: As you know there are infinite rational numbers between any two rational number. To find them :-

1st find their lCM i.e. 2 x 3 =6

So our rational numbers are 2/6 and 3/6

2nd multiply the rational number by bigger number than the required number of rational numbers (like any no. > 3) as shown below

2/6 x 10/10 = 20/60

3/6 x 10/10 = 30/60

Now we can say the three rational numbers between 1/3 and 1/2 are :-

21/60, 22/60 and 23/60.
