Question

Write 4 rational numbers which are between −1/3 & -1/5

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

−1/3 & -1/5

To find rational no's b/w the given rational no's make them like fractions by finding their LCM.

LCM of 3 and 5 = 15

= -1x5/ 3x5 ; -1x3/ 5x3

= -5/15 ; -3/15

Only 1 number can be inserted b/w 5/15 & -3/15, so to insert 4 rational no's multiply both of them with 5.

= -5x5/ 15x5 & -3x5/ 15x5

= -25/75 & -15/75

∴ Rational no's b/w -25/75 & -15/75 = -24/75 ; -23/75 ; -22/75 ; -21/75

You can also write -16/75 ; -17/75 …
