Write between five rational numbers 1/4 and I/2
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, there are more than just five. In fact, there are infinitely many rational numbers between any two points on the number line. Shall we pick five? Easily done. To find a rational number between two other rational numbers, simply calculate the average of those two numbers.
14+122=14+242=342=38
If you need two more rational numbers, just take the average of 1/4 and 3/8, and of 3/8 and 1/2.
14+382=28+382=582=516
38+122=38+482=782=716
We can finish up by finding two more averages, and we have our pick of endpoints. Let’s say we find the average between 1/4 and 5/16, and between 7/16 and 1/2
14+5162=416+5162=9162=932
716+122=716+8162=15162=1532
So there are five rational numbers that lie between 1/4 and 1/2. Not in numerical order:
3/8
5/16
7/16
9/32
15/32
Of course, there is another way to approach this problem. Suppose you wanted five rational numbers spaced at even intervals between 1/4 and 1/2. For the purpose of this exercise, we’ll assume that we don’t want to include 1/4 and 1/2. So that’s six intervals. The gap between 1/4 and 1/2 is 1/4, and one-sixth of the gap is
146=124
So starting at 1/4 (or 6/24) we can count up by 1/24 each time to find five evenly-spaced rational numbers between 1/4 and 1/2.
7/24
8/24 = 1/3
9/24 = 3/8
10/24 = 5/12
11/24
Answer:
here's your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
for making the denominator equal,
1/4 = 1*2/4*2 = 2/8
1/2 = 1*4/2*4 = 4/8
we have to find 5 rational no. so we will multiply 6 to both nominator and denominator
2/8 = 2*6/8*6 = 12/48
4/8 = 4*6/8*6 = 24/48
so, the 5 rational numbers between 1/4 and 1/2 are - 13/48 , 14/48 , 15/48 , 16/48 , 17/48
