Answer:
-11/24 and -4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is a fraction in the form a/b where both a and b are integers and b is not equal to zero.
Given the numbers -1/3 and -1/2, to place two numbers between them, we have to first find the width between the two numbers.
Width = -1/3 - (-1/2) = -1/3 + 1/2 = 1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6
Since two numbers are to be placed between -1/3 and -1/2, we have to divide the width into 3 which results to 1/6 ÷ 3 = 1/18
The first number placed is -1/3 - 1/18 = -11/24
The second number is -11/24 - 1/18 = -4/9
