write five rational numbers between 2/3 and 3/4
Answers
1st u need to take L.C.M
LCM of the denominator u need to take
it means LCM of 3,4
u will get 12 as LCM
2/3=2/3×4/4=8/12
3/4=3/4×3/3=9/12
so multiply 8/12 and 9/12 by 11/11
u will get as:
8/12×11/11=88/132
9/12×11/11=99/132
So,the five rational numbers are 89/132,90/132,91/132,92/132,93/132
Concept:
A rational number is a number that can be represented in the form of p/q of two integers, where q ≠ 0.
Given:
2/3 and 3/4
Find:
We are asked to find five rational numbers between 2/3 and 3/4.
Solution:
We have,
2/3 and 3/4
Now,
The denominator of the given fractions are different,
So,
Multiply the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 4,
We get,
= 8/12
Now,
Multiply the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 3,
We get,
= 9/12
Now,
Multiply the numerator and denominator of the new fractions by 8,
We get,
i.e. (8/12) × 8 = 64/96
And,
(9/12) × 8 = 72/96
Now,
The rational number between 64/96 and 72/96,
i.e.
65/96, 66/96, 67/96, 68/96, 69/96, ...
So, these are the rational numbers between 2/3 and 3/4.
Hence, the rational numbers between 2/3 and 3/4 are 65/96, 66/96, 67/96, 68/96, and 69/96.
