Answer 2

There are infinite solutions because there is always another number between any two numbers.

Explanation:

Pick any number (including decimal) add an extra decimal after the smallest one and then you have a number between them. E.g.

1.234 and 2.987

1.2341, 1.2342, 1.2343, ... are all between them
