Answer:


(x+y)/(2)

Explanation:

Let first number be x and another number is y.

A rational number is a fraction that can be expressed in the form of x/y.

A rational number between x and y is given by :


R=(x+y)/(2)

So,

If x and y are two rational numbers such that x < y , then
(x+y)/(2) is a rational number in between x and y.
