The correct Answer is:
To find six rational numbers between 3 and 4, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the range We need to find rational numbers that lie between the integers 3 and 4. ### Step 2: Convert the integers to fractions We can express 3 and 4 as fractions: - \( 3 = \frac{3}{1} \) - \( 4 = \frac{4}{1} \) ### Step 3: Find a common denominator To find rational numbers between these two fractions, we can convert them to have a common denominator. A simple way to do this is to multiply both fractions by a number that gives us a larger denominator. Let's multiply both by 6: - \( 3 = \frac{3 \times 6}{1 \times 6} = \frac{18}{6} \) - \( 4 = \frac{4 \times 6}{1 \times 6} = \frac{24}{6} \) ### Step 4: Identify the range of numerators Now we have: - \( \frac{18}{6} \) and \( \frac{24}{6} \) The numerators between 18 and 24 are 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23. ### Step 5: Write the rational numbers Now we can write the rational numbers using the common denominator: 1. \( \frac{19}{6} \) 2. \( \frac{20}{6} \) 3. \( \frac{21}{6} \) 4. \( \frac{22}{6} \) 5. \( \frac{23}{6} \) ### Step 6: Add one more rational number To find a sixth rational number, we can take the average of 3 and 4, which is \( \frac{3.5}{1} \) or \( \frac{7}{2} \). We can convert this to have a denominator of 6: - \( \frac{7}{2} = \frac{7 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{21}{6} \) (but this is already included) Instead, we can choose another rational number: - \( \frac{24}{6} \) is not included, so we can take \( \frac{25}{6} \). ### Final List of Rational Numbers Thus, the six rational numbers between 3 and 4 are: 1. \( \frac{19}{6} \) 2. \( \frac{20}{6} \) 3. \( \frac{21}{6} \) 4. \( \frac{22}{6} \) 5. \( \frac{23}{6} \) 6. \( \frac{25}{6} \)
