Question

Two rational numbers between
1/2and7/8​

Answer 1

Answer: 5/8 and 6/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Making the denominators same

We can make the denominators of 1/2 and 7/8 same by having the LCM as its denominator.

The LCM of the denominators 2 and 8 is 8.

Since the denominator is 8 in the fraction 7/8 there's no need to make any changes to it. We have to multiply 4 to the numerator and the denominator to 1/2 to make the denominator same.

So, we get new rational numbers: 4/8 and 7/8

Step 2: Find two numbers easily between them since the denominators are same

Now, There's nothing more to do, Numbers between 4/8 and 7/8 are obviously, 5/8 and 6/8 and indeed that's our answer.
