C Correct answer
Explanation

5/16 = 0.3125 and 1/2 = 0.5. Comparing options: 3/8 = 0.375 (in range), 7/16 = 0.4375 (in range), 1/4 = 0.25 (not in range), 13/32 = 0.40625 (in range).

Find 9 rational numbers between  $2$ and $3$

  1. $2 < 2.1 < 2.2 < 3.3 < 2.4 < ... < 2.9 < 3$
  2. $2 < 4.1 < 2.2 < 2.3 < 2.4 < ... < 2.9 < 3$
  3. $2 < 2.1 < 2.2 < 2.3 < 2.4 < ... < 2.9 < 3$
  4. $2 < 2.1 < 2.2 < 2.3 < 2.4 < ... < 0.9 < 3$

C Correct answer
Explanation

$2 < 2.1=(2+0.1) < 2.2=(2.1+0.1) < 2.3=(2.2+0.1) < 2.4=(2.3+0.1) < ... < 2.9=(2.8+0.1) < 3=(2.9+0.1)$


$2 < 2.1 < 2.2 < 2.3 < 2.4 < ... < 2.9 < 3$

A Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $ \sqrt {2} = 1.414

$ and $ \sqrt {3} = 1.732 $

Hence two rational numbers between $ 1.414 $ and $ 1.732

$  can be $ 1.5 (= \frac {3}{2}) $ and $ 1.6 (= \frac {16}{10}= \frac {8}{5}) $

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. $\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{2}$

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.

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.

C Correct answer
Explanation

We know $\dfrac{5}{16} =0.3125$

and $\dfrac{1}{2}= 0.5$
Option A: $\dfrac{3}{8} =0.375$
lying between the gven numbers

Option B: $\dfrac{7}{16}= 0.4375$
lying between the given numbers.

Option C: $\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25$
NOT lying between the given numbers.

Option D: $\dfrac{13}{32}=0.40625$
lying between the given numbers.
So, option C is correct.
