Insert a rational number between 2/9 and 3/8,and arrange in descending order​

\huge\mathfrak\green{Answer}

Take LCM of 8 and 9 and make their denominators same.

2/9 = 16/72

3/8 = 27/72

All numbers,

17/72, 18/72, 19/72, 20/72..

26/72 are in between the two numbers.

First we have to find the LCM of denominators

LCM of 9 and 8 = 72

 \frac{2}{9}  =  \frac{2 \times 8}{9 \times 8}  =  \frac{16}{72}  \\  \frac{3}{8}  =  \frac{3 \times 9}{8 \times 9}  =  \frac{27}{72}

Now there are more than one rational number between 16 and 27 you can write any one so

 \frac{27}{72}  >  \frac{20}{72}  >  \frac{16}{72}  \\

It is in descending order.

You said for only one, but you can write more than one.

hope it helps.
