4 rational number between -4 and -5

Question

Write 4 rational number between -4 and -5

 

Answer 1

There are infinitely many rational numbers between any two numbers.

 

In this case, all you have to do is move small amounts leftward from -4, to get numbers such as -4.01, -4.02, etc. (a.k.a. -401/100_.

 

There is no need to compute them.

Answer 2

(-4 +(-5) )/2=-9/2=-4.5

 

(-4.5 + (-5))/2 =-9.5/2=-4.75

 

(-4.5 +(-4))/2 =-8.5/2 =-4.25

 

(-4.25 +(-4))/2 =-8.25/2 =-4.125

Answer 3

Rational numbers may be written as a fraction.

 

On a number line, -5 and -4 look like this:

-------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|-----

        -5         -4          -3          -2          -1           0           1

or

-------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|-----

    -50/10   -40/10   -30/10   -20/10   -10/10   0/10    10/10

 

So, here are four rational numbers between -50/100 and -40/100:

   -49/10

   -48/10             [optionally, reduce]

   -47/10

   -46/10             [optionally, reduce]

Answer 4

Rational numbers are numbers that can written as a fraction.  The numerator and denominator must both be integers.

 

-4.25 , -4.50 , -4.75 , -4.875
