There are four irrational numbers between √11 and √17.

To determine the number of irrational numbers between √11 and √17, we need to consider the nature of irrational numbers and their density on the number line.

Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction or ratio of two integers. They are found between any two distinct rational numbers and are infinitely dense on the number line.

√11 and √17 are both irrational numbers themselves. To find the irrational numbers between them, we can take the difference between the two numbers (√17 - √11) and determine how many irrational numbers are found within that range.

Calculating the difference:
√17 - √11 ≈ 4.123 - 3.317 ≈ 0.806

Since the difference between √17 and √11 is approximately 0.806, we can infer that there are irrational numbers within this range. However, it is not possible to determine the precise number of irrational numbers between √11 and √17 without using more advanced mathematical techniques.

Therefore, we can conclude that there are "an infinite number" of irrational numbers between √11 and √17.
