To find five rational numbers between 1 and 2, we can select fractions or decimals that fall within that range. Here are five examples:
- 1.2
- 1.4
- 1.6
- 1.75
- 1.9
Each of these numbers is rational because they can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. For example:
- 1.2 = 12/10
- 1.4 = 14/10
- 1.6 = 16/10
- 1.75 = 175/100
- 1.9 = 19/10
This method not only gives you five rational numbers between 1 and 2, but it also illustrates how a rational number can be represented as a fraction.
