Question

A rational number between $\frac{-2}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ is

• A. $-\frac{3}{6}$
• B. $\frac{-1}{12}$
• C. $\frac{-5}{6}$
• D. $\frac{5}{6}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $-\frac{3}{6}$

$\frac{-2}{3}and\frac{1}{2}$
$To\text{find rational number between to two number make the denominator}$
$\text{same and then check the numbers in between numerators}$
$\frac{-4}{6}and\frac{3}{6}$
$now\text{the possible numbers between -4 and 3 are -3,-2,-1,0,1,2}$
$Hence$
$-\frac{4}{6}<-\frac{3}{6}<-\frac{2}{6}<-\frac{1}{6}<0<\frac{1}{6}<\frac{2}{6}<\frac{3}{6}$
$\therefore \text{the possible rational number between}\frac{-2}{3}and\frac{1}{2}is\frac{-3}{6}$
