Answer» Let a = -1/2, b = 1/2 Equivalent number to -1/2 & 1/2, while multiplying both numerator and denominator by 3, a = -1/2 = -1/2 x 3/3 = -3/6 b = 1/2 = 1/2 x 3/3 = 3/6 Four rational numbers between -3/6 and 3/6 are -2/6, -1/6, 1/6, 2/6 or -1/3, -1/6, 1/6, 1/3 Hence, required four rational numbers are -1/3, -1/6, 1/6 and 1/3 |
