  • How to find rational numbers between two given rational numbers?


If m and n be two rational numbers ,then 1/2 (m + n) is a rational number between m and n.

For example;

Find out a rational number lying between -1/3 and 1/2.

Solution:

Required number = 1/2 (-1/3 + 1/2)

= 1/2 ((-2 + 3)/6)

= {1/2 × 1/6)

= 1/12

Hence, 1/12 is a rational number lying between 1/3 and 1/2.

Thank you :)
