List four rational numbers between `5/7` and `7/8`.
Advertisements
Solution
Given rational numbers are `5/7` and `7/8`
For making the same denominators: LCM of 7 and 8 = 56
i.e. `(5 xx 8)/(7 xx 8) = 40/56` and `(7 xx 7)/(8 xx 7) = 49/56`
So the four rational numbers between `40/56` and `49/56` are `42/56, 44/56, 46/56, 48/56`.
