Question

Which of these fractions lie between $\frac{3}{8}$ and $\frac{7}{8}$ on the number line?

• A.
• B.
• C.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{8}$

​$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{4}{8}$

​$\frac{9}{8}=\frac{9}{8}$

​$\frac{20}{16}=\frac{10}{8}$

so $\frac{4}{8}$ lies between $\frac{3}{8}$ and $\frac{7}{8}$ as 3<4<7
