• A. $\frac{7}{3}$
• B. $\frac{4}{3}$
• C. $\frac{5}{3}$
• D. $\frac{6}{3}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$\frac{4}{3}$

In the fractions $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$, the denominators are same.

So, considering numerator values, we can find the required rational number.

4 lies between 1 and 5.

So, keep 4 in the numerator and keep the same denominator as it is.

The required rational number is $\frac{4}{3}$.
