Question
Insert three rational number between:
-3 and 3
Advertisements
Solution
A rational number lying between - 3 and 3
= `(-3 + 3)/(2)`
= `(0)/(2)`
= 0
A rational number lying between - 3 and 0
= `(-3 + 0)/(2)`
= `-(3)/(2)`
A rational number lying between 0 and 3
= `(0 + 3)/(2)`
= `(3)/(2)`
`-3 < -(3)/(2) < 0 < (3)/(2) < 3`
Hence, three rational numbers between - 3 and 3 are
`-(3)/(2) , 0 and (3)/(2)`.
