Answer: $\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mid point 'c' between any two numbers 'a' and 'b' we apply the following rule:-

$c=\frac{a+b}{2}$

Now, the number is midway between 2/5 and 1 will be given by :-

$\c=\frac{\frac{2}{5}+1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ c=\frac{\frac{7}{5}}{2}....\text{[by taking LCM]}\\\\\Rightarrow\ c=\frac{7}{2\times5}\\\\\Rightarrow\ c=\frac{7}{10}$

Hence, the number is midway between 2/5 and 1 = $\frac{7}{10}$
