Question

How to find the rational number between ½ and⅔

Answer 1

Answer:

A rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction.

Let's change 1/3 and 1/5 to fractions with the common denominator of 15.

We now have 5/15 and 3/15.

We only see one rational number between these two: 4/15.

Let's change the denominator to 30.

We now have 10/30 and 6/30.

Two rational numbers in this interval are 7/30 and 8/30.

8/30 is the same as 4/15.

Two rational numbers between 1/3 and 1/5 are 4/15 and 7/30.
