1 answer

To determine which of the options is a rational number between 5 and 514, we can convert each of the options into decimal form or evaluate their values.

  1. 5 1/3 = 5 + 1/3 = 5.333...
  2. 5 1/7 = 5 + 1/7 ≈ 5.142857...
  3. 5 2/5 = 5 + 2/5 = 5.4
  4. √26 (the square root of 26) is approximately 5.099...

Now let's see if any of these numbers fall between 5 and 514:

  • 5 1/3 = 5.333...
  • 5 1/7 ≈ 5.142857...
  • 5 2/5 = 5.4
  • √26 ≈ 5.099...

All four options (5 1/3, 5 1/7, 5 2/5, and √26) are rational numbers that fall between 5 and 514.

However, if you want just one option, any of them can be considered correct, but usually the first option is chosen. Therefore, the answer could be:

5 1/3 (as a standard choice).
