Question

Find a rational number between -1/3 and 1/2

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers between two rational numbers:

•      First find the Least Common Denominator for 2 and 3
• Then find equivalent fractions with the LCD.

LCD of 2 and 3 = 6

$\sf \dfrac{-1}{3}=\dfrac{-1*2}{3*2}=\dfrac{-2}{6}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1*3}{2*3}=\dfrac{3}{6}$

$\sf Rational \ number \ between \ \dfrac{-2}{6} \ and \ \dfrac{3}{6} \ is \ \bf \dfrac{1}{6}$
