Question

The two rational numbers between 2/9 and 7/9 are a) 3/9, 5/9 b) 4/9, 8/9 c) 2/9, 0 d) 1/3, -1/3 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 3/9, 5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 3/9, 5/9

because both numbers come between 2/9 and 7/9.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. $\frac{3}{9}$ and $\frac{5}{9}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Any number of the form $\frac{p}{q}$, where $p$ and $q$ are integers and $q$ is not equal to $0$, is a rational number.

Given:

Two rational numbers $=$  $\frac{2}{9}$ and $\frac{7}{9}$

To find:

We have to find the two rational numbers between the given numbers.

Solution:

Both $\frac{2}{9}$ and $\frac{7}{9}$ are rational positive numbers.

As a result, since alternatives (c) and (d) include $0$ and $\frac{-1}{3}$, they cannot be the solution.

Option (b) has an $\frac{8}{9}$ ratio, which is higher than $\frac{7}{9}$.

The correct choice is (a).

Between the dates $\frac{2}{9}$ and $\frac{7}{9}$ exist both $\frac{3}{9}$ and $\frac{5}{9}$.
