when is it possible to find a rational number between two given rational numbers? ( 1 point)

1 answer

It is always possible to find a rational number between any two given rational numbers, as long as the two numbers are distinct. If you have two rational numbers, a and b, where a<b, you can find a rational number between them by taking their average:

a+b2

This number will be rational and will lie between a and b. For example, if a=13 and b=23, then

13+232=12

is a rational number between 13 and 23.
