Question

Write any three rational numbers between the two numbers given below.

−2.3 and −2.33

Answer 1

−2.3 = −2.300 and −2.33 = −2.330

`1/2` [−2.300 + (−2.330)]

= `1/2` (−2.300 −2.330)

= `1/2` (−4.630)

= −2.315

`1/2` [−2.315 + (−2.300)] 

= `1/2` [−2.315 − 2.300]

= `1/2` (−4.615)

= −2.3075

= `1/2` [−2.315 + (−2.330)]

= `1/2` (−2.315 − 2.330)

= `1/2` (−4.645)

= −2.3225 

∴ The three rational numbers between −2.3 and −2.33 are −2.315, −2.3025 and −2.3225.
