Answer:

-2 1/4

converting the fraction to decimals

-2 2/5 = -2.4

-2.1 = -2 1/10

-2 1/4 = -2.25

this is between -2.1 and -2.4 on the number line

Explanation:

to determine which number is between the numbers specified, convert to fractions

-2 2/5 = -2.4

-2.1 = -2 1/10

-2 1/4 = -2.25

3/10 = -0.3

this is less than -2.1

-21/2 = -2.5

this is greater than -21/4

-15/6 = -1.83

this is less than -2.1

it is only, -21/4 that is between the numbers
