Question

Write at least four rational numbers between -2/5 and -1/3.​

Answer 1

-0.34, -0.35, -0.36, -0.37

Explanation:

A rational number can be any number, negative or positive, so long as if the decimals (if any) terminate at some point or at least repeats itself.

-
`(2)/(5)` = -0.4

-
`(1)/(3)` = -0.333_ (This means that the digit "3" is repeated forever)

Thus, the possible rational numbers can be:

-0.34

-0.35

-0.36

-0.37

-0.38

-0.39

You can even write decimals like -0.334 since it is bigger than -0.333_ but smaller than -0.4.
