Question

Which of the following rational numbers lies between $0$ and $-1$?

• A. $0$
• B. $-1$
• C. $\frac{-1}{4}$
• D. $\frac{1}{4}$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$\frac{-1}{4}$

Clearly, $0$ and $-1$ cannot lie between $0$ and $-1$.

Also,

$0=\frac{0}{4}$ and $-1=\frac{-4}{4}$

We can clearly see that $\frac{-1}{4}$ lies between $0$ and $-1$.
