To find the rational and irrational number between 6.2 and 6.5.
Answer to Problem 53HP
Between 6.2 and 6.5, irrational number is 6.3 and irrational number is 6.4231253465.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Between 6.2 and 6.5
Calculation : The rational number and irrational number is obtained as,
Check the 10th place values of given numbers 6.2 and 6.5.
10th place value of 6.2 is 2 and tenth place value of 6.5 is 5.
So, find a rational number and an irrational that has 10th place value between 2 and 5.
Take 10th place value for a rational number and an irrational as 3 and 5.
Let us understand what a rational number and what and an irrational is.
A rational is the number (decimal number or any other number) that can be written on a fraction form. For example 2/5, 2/3 etc.
So, a rational number between 6.2 and 6.5 is 6.3.
An irrational number is a number (decimal number or any other number) that can't be written in the from of a fraction. For example 1.334454623, sqrt(2) etc .
So, an irrational number between 6.2 and 6.5 is 6.4231253465.
Let us round 6.4231253465 to nearest hundredth ( three decimal places).
6.4231253465 ˜ 6.423
