Answer 2

Given: -3 and -1​

To find: Five rational numbers between the given numbers.

Solution:

• A rational number between two given numbers is calculated as,

        $\frac{n_{1} + n_{2}}{2}$

• Here, n₁ and n₂ are the given numbers.
• So, a rational number between -3 and -1 is,

        $\frac{(-3) + (-1)}{2} = -2$

• To find more rational numbers between -3 and -1, rational numbers are found between -3 and -2, and -2 and -1.

        $\frac{(-3) + (-2)}{2} = -2.5$

        $\frac{(-2) + (-1)}{2} = -1.5$

• Similarly, two more rational numbers are found between any of these numbers in order to get five rational numbers in total.

        $\frac{(-2) + (-2.5)}{2} = -2.75$

        $\frac{(-1.5) + (-1)}{2} = -1.25$

Therefore, five rational numbers between -3 and -1 are -2, -2.5, -1.5, -2.75 and -1.25.
