Question

Give a rational number between √2 and √3

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5 (or) 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Square root of 2 is 1.414 and

Square root of 3 is 1.732

as 1.5 is a rational number and comes in between these both irrational numbers, it can be the answer..

Answer 2

Answer:

1.6 ( 8/5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

√2 value is 1.414 ( approx to 3 digits )

√3 value is 1.732 ( approx to 3 digits )

a number between 1.414 and 1.732 is 1.6

1.6 is a rational number because it can be represented in p/q form

1.6 = 16/10 = 8/5

both 8 and 5 are integers and 5 $\neq$ 0

so 8/5 is rational

hence a rational number between √2 and √3 is 1.6 ( 8/5 )
