Find the rational numbers between 8/7 and 7/8

Answer»

LCM of 7 and 8 = 56



Hence,

\frac{8}{7}  =  \frac{8 \times8 }{7 \times 8}  =  \frac{64}{56}

And

\frac{7}{8}  =  \frac{7 \times 7}{8 \times 7}  =  \frac{49}{56}



Then,

\frac{64}{56}  >  \frac{49}{56}  \\  \\  =>  \frac{64}{56}  >  \frac{63}{56}  >  \frac{49}{56}




A RATIONAL NUMBER is 63 / 56

On simplifing,


63 / 56 = 9 / 8 [ required rational number ]
