To find a rational number between 5 and 5/14, we need to find a number with a decimal representation between 5 and 5/14.

The fraction 5/14 is approximately 0.3571 when rounded to four decimal places.

Looking at the given options:
1. 5 1/3 = 5.3333... which is greater than 5, so it is not between 5 and 5/14.
2. 5 1/7 = 5.1428... which is less than 5, so it is not between 5 and 5/14.
3. √26 ≈ 5.0990... which is less than 5, so it is not between 5 and 5/14.
4. 5 2/5 = 5.4 which is greater than 5, but it is still not between 5 and 5/14.

Therefore, none of the given options is a rational number between 5 and 5/14.
