3 rational numbers between-1/2 and-1/4

1.	3 rational numbers between-1/2 and-1/4
Answer» Answer: FIRST step is to make the rational NUMBERS with a common DENOMINATOR = -1/2 and -1/4 = -2/4 and - 1/4 Finding the MEAN = -3/4 * 1/2 1st rational number that we have OBTAINED is -3/8 Finding the mean between -3/8 and -2/4 = -3 + -4/8 = -7/8 * 1/2 = -7 /16 2nd rational that we have obtained is -7/16 Finding the mean between -3/8 and -1/4 = (-3/8 +-2/8) * 1/2 = -5/8 * 1/2 = -5/16 3rd rational number that we have obtained is -5/16

Answer:

FIRST step is to make the rational NUMBERS with a common DENOMINATOR

= -1/2 and -1/4

= -2/4 and - 1/4

Finding the MEAN

= -3/4 * 1/2

1st rational number that we have OBTAINED is -3/8

Finding the mean between -3/8 and -2/4

= -3 + -4/8

= -7/8 * 1/2

= -7 /16

2nd rational that we have obtained is -7/16

Finding the mean between -3/8 and -1/4

= (-3/8 +-2/8) * 1/2

= -5/8 * 1/2

= -5/16

3rd rational number that we have obtained is -5/16
