Question

What is a rational number between 1/6 and 1/12...

Answer 1

1/10 is between 1/6 and 1/12
1/10 = .1

Answer 2

Answer:

`(1)/(8)`

Explanation:

We are given that two rational numbers
`(1)/(6)` and
`(1)/(12)`

We have to find a rational number between
`(1)/(6)` and
`(1)/(12)`.

Let c be the rational number lie between
`(1)/(6)` and
`(1)/(12)`.

`c=(a+b)/(2)`

Where a and b are rational number

`a=(1)/(6), b=(1)/(12)`

Therefore,
`c=((1)/(6)+(1)/(12))/(2)`

`c=((2+1)/(12))/(2)=(3)/(12* 2)=(1)/(8)`

Hence, the rational number between
`(1)/(6)` and
`(1)/(12)` =
`(1)/(8)`
