List any five rational numbers between the given rational numbers
`(-1)/2` and `3/5`
Advertisements
Solution
`(-1)/2` and `3/5`
L.C.M of 2 and 5 = 2 × 5 = 10
`(-1)/2 = (-1 xx 5)/(2 xx 5) = (-5)/10`
`3/5 = (3 xx 2)/(5 xx 2) = 6/10`
∴ Five rational number between `(-1)/2` and `3/5` are `(-3)/10, (-1)/10, 0, 1/10, 2/10, 5/10`
