1.

State whether the statement are true (T) or false (F).-7/2 lies between -3 and -4.

Answer»

True.

Express each of the given rational numbers with 2 as the common denominator.

Now,

-3/1 = [(-3×2)/ (1×2)] = (-6/2)

-4/1 = [(-4×2)/ (1×2)] = (-8/2)

Then,

-8/2 > -7/2 > -6/2

-4 > -7/2 > -3

So, -7/2 is lies between -3 and -4.
