Write three rational numbers between $\displaystyle \sqrt{3}$ and $\displaystyle \sqrt{5}$.

  1. 1.8,2 and 2.2

  2. 1.6,2 and 2.2

  3. 1.8,2.2 and 2.4

  4. none of the above

A Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $ \sqrt {3} = 1.732$ and $ \sqrt {5} = 2.236 $

Hence three rational numbers between $ 1.732 $ and $ 2.236$  can be $ 1.8 \left(= \dfrac {18}{10}\right)  $ , $ 2 $ and $ 2.2 \left(= \dfrac {22}{10}\right) $.

Which one of the following is the rational number lying between $\displaystyle \frac{6}{7} \ and \ \frac{7}{8}?$

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}$
  2. $\displaystyle \frac{99}{122}$
  3. $\displaystyle \frac{95}{112}$
  4. $\displaystyle \frac{97}{112}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Required rational number $\displaystyle =\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{6}{7}+\frac{7}{8} \right )=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{48+49}{56} \right )=\frac{97}{112}$
Hence option (d) is correct

The number of integers between $\displaystyle -\sqrt{8}: and: \sqrt{32} $ is

  1. 5

  2. 6

  3. 7

  4. 8

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
We will find the number of integers as follows,
√8 = 2.8 ( approximately )
- √8 = - 2.8
√32 = 5.6 ( approximately )
Now integers between -2.8 and 5.6 are
-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
and a total of 8 numbers
Option D is the correct answer.

Identify a rational number between $\sqrt{2}$ and $\sqrt{3}$.

  1. $\dfrac{\sqrt{2}.\sqrt{3}}{2}$
  2. $1.5$
  3. $1.8$
  4. $\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{2}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

As $\sqrt 6$ is irrational therefore option A is wrong.

$1.5$ is rational and it lies between $\sqrt 2$ & $\sqrt 3$ hence Option B is correct.
$1.8$ is rational but it doesn't lies between $\sqrt {2}$ & $\sqrt 3$ implies option C is wrong.
As sum of $\sqrt 2$ & $\sqrt 3$ is irrational therefore option D is also wrong.

Which are three rational numbers between $-2$ and $-1$?

  1. $\dfrac { -1 }{ 2 } ,\dfrac { -1 }{ 3 } ,\dfrac { -1 }{ 5 } $
  2. $\dfrac { -3 }{ 2 } ,\dfrac { -7 }{ 4 } ,\dfrac { -5 }{ 4 } $
  3. $\dfrac { -12 }{ 5 } ,\dfrac { -22 }{ 5 } ,\dfrac { 12 }{ 5 } $
  4. $\dfrac { 3 }{ 2 } ,\dfrac { 7 }{ 4 } ,\dfrac { 5 }{ 4 } $

B Correct answer
Explanation

In option B,


$\dfrac{-3}{2} = -1.5$

$\dfrac{-7}{4} = -1.75$

$\dfrac{-5}{4} = -1.25$

All these numbers lie in between $(-2,-1)$

The rational number between the pair of number $\dfrac{1}{2}$ and $\sqrt 1$ is:

  1. $\dfrac{9}{4}$
  2. $\dfrac{3}{4}$
  3. $\dfrac{5}{4}$
  4. $\dfrac{7}{4}$

B Correct answer
Explanation

The rational number between $\dfrac12$ and $\sqrt1$ :

Since, $\sqrt1=1$
So. the rational number between $\dfrac12$ and $1=\dfrac12\times \left(\dfrac12+1\right)$
$=\dfrac12 \times \dfrac32$
$=\cfrac34$
So, $B$ is the correct option.

Number of rational numbers between $15$ and $18$ is:

  1. infinite

  2. finite

  3. zero

  4. one

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Between any two rational numbers we can find infinitely many rational numbers. 

Thus, number of rational numbers between $15$ and $18$ is infinite.
Hence, the answer is infinite.

A rational number -2/3 ______ .

  1. Lies to the left side of 0 on the number line.

  2. Lies to the right side of 0 on the number line.

  3. It is not possible to represent on the number line.

  4. Cannot be determined on which side the number lies.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

rational number always lies on the line.

 this rational number is $\dfrac{-2}{3}$ which is negative  hence it is always lies to left side of $0$ on the number line.
hence option $A$ is correct.
