To identify a number between 5 and 5 1/4, we first convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction or decimal for a clearer comparison.
5 1/4 can be converted as follows:
- 5 1/4 = 5 + 1/4 = 5 + 0.25 = 5.25
Now we are looking for a number that falls between 5 and 5.25.
Examples of numbers between 5 and 5.25 include:
- 5.1
- 5.2
- 5.15
- 5.24
Any of these numbers would qualify as being between 5 and 5 1/4.
If you provide specific options, I can help identify which of them fits the criteria.
