Answer 1

incorrect

Answer 2

Find a rational number with one decimal place that is between 17−−√ and 18−−√.

Answer 3

To find a rational number between 2 and 21/4, you can add the two numbers together and divide by 2.

2 + 21/4 = 8/4 + 21/4 = 29/4

Now, divide 29/4 by 2:

(29/4) / 2 = 29/4 * 1/2 = 29/8 = 3 5/8

Therefore, a rational number between 2 and 21/4 using the method of adding the numbers together and dividing by 2 is 3 5/8.

Answer 4

I apologize for the mistake.

To find a rational number between 2 and 21/4, we can add the two numbers together and divide by 2:

2 + 21/4 = 8/4 + 21/4 = 29/4

Now, divide 29/4 by 2:

(29/4) / 2 = 29/4 * 1/2 = 29/8

So, a rational number between 2 and 21/4 using the method of adding the numbers together and dividing by 2 is 29/8.
