(a) Given two real numbers a and b in ℝ with a < b, show that there exists an integer N such that 0 < N-1 < b - a. Show that there exists an integer k in ℤ such that

.(k/N)∈]a,b[

(b) Show that the closure of the collection ℚ of rational numbers is equal to ℝ. This is also known as ℚ being dense in ℝ.

(c) Given a segment I ⊂ ℝ (which contains more than one point) and a pair of continuous functions f, g : I → ℝ with f(x) = g(x) for all x ∈ I ∩ ℚ, show that f = g.

I have attached an image of the above questions incase the symbols don't show, please if able write some explanation with the taken steps. Thank you in advance
