Advertisements
Solution
\[\text{Since both the fractions} (\frac{- 2}{9} \text{and} \frac{5}{9}) \text{have the same denominator, the integers between the numerators}( - 2 \text{and} 5) \text{are} - 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 . \]
\[\text{Hence, two rational numbers between} \frac{- 2}{9} \text{and} \frac{5}{9} \text{are} \frac{0}{9} \text{or}\ 0 \text{and} \frac{1}{9} .\]
