Question

Choose the rational numbers, which lie, between the rational numbers, $\frac{3}{8}$​ and $\frac{7}{12}$​

• A. $\frac{48}{96}$
• B. $\frac{13}{16}$
• C. $\frac{10}{24}$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

$\frac{10}{24}$

To find the rational number between $\frac{3}{8}$ and $\frac{7}{12}$, we need to convert these rational numbers into decimal form.
$\Rightarrow \frac{3}{8}=0.375\Rightarrow \frac{7}{12}=\mathrm{0.5833...}=0.58\overline{3}$

Option(a)
$\frac{48}{96}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5$


Option(b)
$\frac{13}{16}=0.8125$


Option(c)
​​​​​​​ $\frac{10}{24}=\frac{5}{12}=0.41\overline{6}$
