Step-by-step explanation:
5/3 = 1.6.
If p=1, then 2p = 2 in which 0 whole numbers lie in b/w.
If p=2, then 2p = 4 in which 2 whole numbers lie in b/w (i.e 2,3)
If p=3, then 2p = 6 in which 4 whole numbers lie in b/w (i.e 2,3,4,5)
From the pattern we can conclude that for any value of p, (2p -2) whole numbers lie between 5/3 and 2p.
