------------------------------------------------------

• Since, 12² = 144 and 13² = 169, the square root of 150 is between 12 and 13.

• Then, you can pick any two whole numbers less than 13 and multiple them by 1/8.

• Remember that multiplying by 1/8 is the same that dividing by 8.

• Choose 12 and 11, for instance, and two rational numbers that are less than 1/8 of the actual side length are 12/8 and 11/8.

• 12/8 can be simplified to 3/2 and 11/8 is in its simplest form.

• Thus, two rational numbers that are within 1/8 of the actual side length of the bulletin board are 3/2 and 11/8.
